He who cannot rest cannot work, He who cannot let go cannot hold on, He who cannot find footing cannot go forward.......Harry Emerson Fosdick

There is part of the human scyche that wants to get right along to the last step, to wrap things up. Sometimes before we barely get started we want to jump to conclusions. Happy endings are our favorite part of any project.

Yet behind every successful conclusion is a productive plan. Conclusions are consequences, and all consequences are caused. They are a result of something that went before. We are wise when we take the time to see and understand what it takes to make a happy ending really happen. There can be no productive work without letting go. No going forward without firm footing-even if that firm footing costs us some time and a few tumbles. Every step of it. Satisfying conclusions come to be when we take all of the steps, one at a time and stop sabotaging the project with shortcuts.

Self esteem thrives on the satisfaction on a job well done.........

Sorry y'all still trying to learn how to space my paragraphs. Please forgive me.

At the end of each paragraph hit the enter bar
for spacing in between paragraphs..go to the end of the last line typed and hit the enter key. This will give extra space in between..if you seperate text on accident where you didnt mean to..just hit the backspace bar to go back..you have to be at the very end of your words when you hit enter.
