Yeah.. still sounds like my mom.. who was also notorious for adding to the front or back of the prior said comment "quit doing it half-assed"
the problem this created for me.. was I let her define what half-assed was. I thought I was doing my best, she got to decide otherwise. That was probably the start of me letting others define me. I never was taught to say.. 'that was my best effort' and have it be ok. If it didn't meet her expecations... it was 1/2 assed.
But yes.. Logically, I totally get what you're saying emotionally.. I'm working on it!

Taking the road less traveled because those encountered on the way may be just as unique.
