Perfection Model vs Imperfection Model and learning from that – Part 5

Hi again coach, thanks

“If – when – you let something slip again in the future, what if that same thing – likely feeling something that is hard to feel, living through it, and learning from it – is true?” – AGH! Feel horrible, annoyed, disappointed in self, and the effects of the slip up on top of that.

“How does experiencing some parts of life this way fit into the beautiful tapestry that is You?” – doesn’t feel great. sure, it fits, but i want a different tapestry XD hahahaha

“What comes up for you when you think about that?” – impatience, worry, tension

Thanks coach

 

Answer:

What a great place to start exploring….What tapestry do you want? What stories are you telling about the threads that make up who you are? Would you change them if you could? Why or why not?  (spoiler alert…we can’t change them) We can change the stories we tell, though.

You don’t even have to like where you are now.  How can it be powerful to be in a bit of an uncomfortable place with yourself? Be curious and compassionate as you explore how impatience, worry and tension are just the emotions you need right now.
