Thank you!! Yes I really need to remind myself of this fact over and over and over lol. I put so much pressure on myself for things to need to work out. Even as they ARE working out lol. Of course doing this too much will only serve to sabotage a situation that is working well. This is indeed a fantastic growth opportunity for me. Even if this doesn't work as you said. I need to learn what I like and want, what i don't. What works and what doesn't. So far honestly things are going very well! I just find myself second guessing things a LOT after the fact. An old habit of mine linked to OCD and depression.
