Just to prevent the so-called God-complex?

Through The Sandman/Quietus Leo, who is hosting this week's edition of a blog carnival entitled Surgexperiences, I stumbled upon a blog entitled Spiritual Passages where I found this relevant insight: <BR/><BR/>“The way we feel about things is directly conditioned by the lessons we have learned in the past. They are an image of people we have been with and where we have traveled with them. <BR/><BR/>We may have learned to feel inadequate if we needed to ask for help with something. If we learned that lesson well, we will feel incompetent every time we need assistance with an effort.”<BR/><BR/>I have to teach myself a little resilience and tell myself instead, as Olympic athlete Melanie Roach said on T.V. this morning, "Stop worrying about what just happened. Don't worry about the future. Just live in the now." I have never been very good at setting my own burdens down, or cutting myself a little slack.<BR/><BR/>Ramona and Jack - thanks for the kudos!T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09208990104460795917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5628616877664827988.post-80764862295719675792008-06-08T19:09:00.000-04:002008-06-08T19:09:00.000-04:00Great post.

But ...What I do is nothing compared to what you do. But in the way you are feeling I do see something familiar! <BR/><BR/>If I make a mistake ... even the tiniest little bloop that even some of my colleagues don't notice ... I feel a failure. I get very down on myself. But when a colleague has a rough time of it I think to myself, "Stuff happens. He/she is still a fabulous musician!" Well ... unless the person really isn't a good musician. Then I confess I'm rather harsh in my thought. I'm forgiving of the talented, and quite unforgiving of the untalented and myself. Being harshest, of course, on myself.<BR/><BR/>Funny how some of us are that way, while others are the opposite, thinking only poorly of others and great things of themselves. I'm not sure what makes us the way we are ... the way we were raised, something inside of us that is just there? ... it's a mystery to me! <BR/><BR/>I'm just glad my little bloopers are no big deal in the grand scheme of things, even while they are huge in my little mind.
