Do what you can ....
.... When you can, if you can
i am loosely quoting Teddy Roosevelt here and I feel like many others have also said something similar. I really like the idea behind it, how about you? I feel it may serve as an excellent mantra for life on both the really challenging days as well as the ones that are going rather well.
We get to choose how we respond to people and life’s events and this is always a good reminder to me when I’m beginning to take something personally, or when I need to work a little bit to see something (or someone!) from a different perspective.
While there are some things that you can not control, you can indeed have power over how you react or respond to them. I love that!!! On some days you will have great capacity to do so, and on others not so much; and it’s all ok.
Life is about 50 /50 (thank you Brooke Castillo, Life Coach) and we don’t have to strive for perfection to move forward. Practice makes progress!
Do what you can, when you can, if you can. If not today, maybe tomorrow.
