POLL: My life will be better once I accept......

Happy2beMrsT · February 2010

I guess this is a poll/confession. My life will be SO MUCH better once I accept the fact that I can ONLY really depend on myself.

DH is great, but really not that dependable for the little things. Even my mom has become only somewhat dependable lately. I really have to start accepting this and just depending on myself....then I'll only have myself to blame if this go badly.

The problem with this is eventually you will get tired because you are depending yourself to do EVERYTHING!!! Just a little lesson learned I thought I would share! It is hard to dpened on others - just give others the "not so important" task.....lol

As for me: My life will be better once I learn to forgive myself for past mistakes! This is way easier said than done! :-( But I am trying! Once I make the first step to forgive myself it will be much better - it is just taking that first step that is so hard!

Yes, I agree with Jess! I was the same way as you. I hated asking for help, and my mom is flakey sometimes too. But recently I have learned that I need to communicate better with DH about the things that I need help with. I seriously think that some men just REALLY don't see when things need to be done. Us moms are on top of everything, and maybe they take advantage of that. Once I learned to kindly ask for help, things are MUCH easier for me!

Mine is My life will be much easier once I accept that I am just not 20 anymore. I have been stressin myself out lately because I am aging! : (

My life will be so much better once I accept that even though I didn't finish college (yet), I still have an amazing life and family. There will always be "would of, could of, should of's" in my life and I just need to realize that everything happened for a reason, and I am a better person, mother and wife because of it.

My life will be better once I accept... my mom plays favorites with the grandkids and get over that she obviously likes my niece better than dd. (The reasoning is that "Well, Audrey (my niece) was first.")

My life will be better when I finally accept that we are done having children. I love my daughter and son dearly and am thrilled to have two happy, healthy kids...but I really want to have another baby, despite it being a bad move financially. I keep holding out this little piece of hope that something will give and we'll be able to do it. Which is dumb, because all signs point to it never happening.

That getting pregnant is out of my control and all I can do is my best and wait.

My life will be better once I accept... my family will never be the kind of family who thinks of doing something for you just because they love you. There has to be an angle in it for them. Once I accept that, I can just say thank you and let the rest go and try to make my children better than their relatives (except for my 1 sister who is great).

My life will be SO MUCH better once I accept the fact that I can can't change people. That some people will be lazy and worthless and not leave the life style that I would personally choose. I get so worked up over this *** sometimes, I just don't understand some people.

This is mine, too. I'm not ever going to recapture the energy and waistline and innocence I had when I was in college.

My life will be better once I accept that procrastination is not the answer. I have stuff to sell on Ebay that is just taking up space, I'm just too lazy to figure out shipping and list it. I feel better about life in general when I'm proactive about the things I find tedious.
