\nI blew it…again. \u00a0I am a failure. \u00a0Why should I even bother? \u00a0I will never get it.<\/p>\n

Any of these sound familiar? I\u2019ve been there, experienced and felt it. What I am learning and continue to learn is that \u201cblowing it\u201d gives us an opportunity to re-evaluate how to do it next time.<\/p>\n

For example: It\u2019s Saturday night, a group of friends call to go out for Mexican food. Dinner is great, but the next morning you wake up feeling bloated. Not only that, but you feel guilty and like you are the world\u2019s biggest failure (which is a common feeling for many women).<\/p>\n

You have two choices:<\/p>\n

1. \u00a0Continue in the same pattern because you feel like there is no use in even trying<\/p>\n

OR<\/strong><\/p>\n

2. \u00a0Evaluate how you could have done it differently and have a plan for the next time you go out for Mexican food<\/p>\n

My advice to get over the feelings of guilt, is option number 2. You have never messed up so bad that you can\u2019t get back up and try again. Need some more words for encouragement? \u00a0Listen here to one of my favorite songs by TobyMac, Never Give Up<\/em><\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0 Read these words.<\/a><\/p>\n
