Do the things that interest you and do them with all your heart.
Don’t be concerned about whether people are watching you or criticizing you.
The chances are that they aren’t paying any attention to you.
It’s your attention to yourself that is so stultifying.
But you have to disregard yourself as completely as possible.
If you fail the first time then you’ll just have to try harder the second time.
After all, there’s no real reason why you should fail.
Just stop thinking about yourself.

You never fail when you learn from what went wrong. We all go through these “sessions of time” called Life Lessons from birth to death. The in between is Life. We have all that we need to create and to make from the Creator. Like the post. Peace and Blessings to you.
“Don’t be concerned about whether people are watching you or criticizing you.

beautiful words and that hear is amazing!
Eleanor Roosevelt lived an amazing life, and yet many have no idea of the struggles she overcame. Her biography is worth reading . A quote like this shows her life struggle. Thanks for the reminder that the successful people we may look up to also lived with struggles and did their best with their own insecurities. Love that heart.
I like the heart. So different from the red and pinks we see. I see love growing.
