maybe it's okay to be mediocre. I know!! the perfectionist in me just got jump scared, too, but hear me out. you do not have to be the best at something for that thing to be worth doing. if it brings you enjoyment, if it makes your life even incrementally better, that thing is worth doing. no one will judge you for being mediocre. in fact, by choosing to be mediocre you are already doing better than those who choose not to do the thing at all. perfection is overrated. the pressure that comes with perfection often takes the fun out of doing the thing. once that pressure is gone you can maybe even... have fun??? and this goes for recovery too. you do not have to be perfect at recovery all of the time. messing up does not erase the progress you have made. it is okay to scrape by sometimes, as long as you are still fighting.
