Revelation How to not gaf

Hey guys first post here because I am struggling a little because I am so insecure that I literally never try anything at all cuz I don’t want to suck at it. I am even ashamed and stressed when I walk and how I breathe. I have been SA’D before idk if that has anything to do with it. Any tips would be nice!

Here’s a tip, keep this up. This took courage. This took action. This was a choice. So do something again. Then you have a streak. A streak that you started and you control. Now celebrate! Today is day 1! Then celebrate day 3. Then day 6 and so on! I celebrate with visiting a new coffee shop or buying a new plant. I empathize with you not wanting to suck. That comes from expectations. But who’s “expecting” anything? You make the rules to this game. I hope you can free yourself from the expectations and embrace your effort. Rooting for you!

I just watched this video this morning on my walk and thought it may resonate. I think the 15 minute mark will resonate. I have ZERO affiliation, just one last share on this topic. Hate to see people stuck. Be nurtured by the following…https://youtu.be/iauon8Kdcbw?si=EkC3MysQor7JtfbE
