NEVER ENOUGH, NEVER GOOD ENOUGH!
I wonder why, whatever I do, I feel it is not enough or not good enough! Is it because I have an inferiority complex???? Am I not confident? Do I feel people are judging me? For example I went back home to give some support to my sick friends. Why do I feel that what I did was nothing and I should have done more? Why do I feel I should have gone home for the funerals? It comes up all the time? I feel that I should invite friends for supper even though they don’t invite me? Even if they do?
It’s the same with my art work. To me it’s ok. But sometimes to others they are very impressed with what I’ve done. I think it’s not that great! I never show off my work. I take what I do foregranted.
Anyhow time to make lunch.
When you were growing up, did your mom (or your dad) often act like what you did wasn’t good enough? Did they rarely if ever give you praise for what you did? Did someone in your early life always act like you fell short of their expectations of you? Because if so, that could result in you still feeling like you never do well enough. hugs, Nicky

Perhaps you need to be less dependent on other people’s praise or acceptance. Do something because you want to and not because you feel you have to receive love and praise. I don’t know, I’m just guessing here. Perhaps you should not invite the people over anymore. They might get the message and you won’t feel you have to perform all the time.

I think you’re probably too hard on yourself. Relax.
