Self-doubt
Self-doubt is a bitch She sneaks up on you with questions Simple logical questions And then she brings in reason And your well-meaning friends That’s when everything you wanted to do becomes a mountain Do it anyway Fuck self-doubt and all her questions
2020 Encouragement
I approve of you I approve of your workout And your smile And the way you raise your babies I see you learning and thinking things through as usual To be specific I like how you’re learning to trust yourself How you can be honest about your shortcomings And compromise with clear set boundaries Let’sContinue reading “2020 Encouragement”
