[...] It’s not you, it’s me. I just want to relax and appreciate the fact that I am single and have the freedom to do whatever I’d like. I’m tired of wondering why I am not in a relationship and wishing things were different, but then getting scared when I think they might be. Please just let me love my friends and my family and my dog and puppies and the sky cam…and let that be enough. Enough. [...]

Very fresh thought! Do we always need to start anew to come out of the claustrophobic 'measuring' syndrome? We measure success with money, money with talent, and so on. But we never get the feeling that I have enough. I loved your post. It gives a new angle to think over the finer senses of life... Belmont from http://www.ppiclaimcompany.co.uk/

Greg – thank you so much for the incredibly thoughtful comment! I'm so glad
you stumbled upon Life After College, and I really love the peer support
approach that you've outlined around appreciating accomplishments. I
completely agree that so often people sail right past their achievements and
focus much more heavily on what they don't have, or what isn't going well.
This is a travesty! We have so much to celebrate – big and small – just as
you said.

I also LOVE your comment about “dominating the day” – what an awesome
mentality! Seems like it would really help you focus on getting the most out
of every single day – I am definitely going to try that mantra myself .
Let me know if you try the peer support method around recognizing small
achievements – I'd love to hear how it goes! You might also like this post I
did around peer support for health/fitness goals:

Have a fantastic weekend!
