February 13 • Humilty Challenge
Day 219 The good things I’ve done and accomplished have always been tainted in my mind in comparison to the more significant things I tell myself I can do or should have done; that has driven me. It has also kept me in a constant state of failure. Instead of finding joy in the present, the moment always was compared to what it could have been or should have been. That must stop. I must turn my carefully crafted character of a humble guy into an actual existence of humility. In the words of Golda Meir: “Stop being so humble; you’re not that great.” I have now earned the right to be genuinely humble, even as I seek recovery and dream of greatness. Or not. –JR
