I love this post!!! That’s all, I love it and now I’m going to think about how it applies to my dissertation writing and my procrastination.

Thank you!

Another over-analyzer here. I’m trying to change and just do and be.

Hi Roni!

I just wanted to tell you that I am super excited about your cookbook! I think your recipes on GreenLiteBites are so good and I’m always impressed on how you create these awesome meals! I will definitely be buying your cookbook as soon as it comes out..I’m always looking up your recipes and it would be so nice to have it all in the cookbook to look at! :) Keep up the great work!!!

This post is a great insight that I’m sure many of us can relate to.

I really need to write down this part of a response – It’s only by facing your fears and moving forward anyway that we move beyond our limting beliefs. Wow do I need to remember that when I say “I can’t.” Is it that I can’t or that I’m afraid of not being good enough. Right now I am undecided about going to my son’s fiancee’s bridal shower because I am way of out of my league socially in this group. That is just being too self centered. I’m not the star of this show and no one is going to pay any attention to me so it doesn’t matter who I am. I refuse to be limited by who I already am or I will never be anything more.

And by “them” I meant “though”. … cleary I’m tired!

I love this!
I think I have the opposite problem them… I don’t think things through ENOUGH! That brings with it a whole other bag of problems ;)
Have a great Sunday, Roni.

I recently had a great conversation about mediocrity. We are always striving to be the best at things. But is that realistic? Maybe we can just set our sights on mediocrity and be okay with that. Maybe then we can just enjoy the things we love to the fullest without putting the pressure on ourselves to be the BEST. There is nothing wrong with being pretty good at something.

Roni, your recipes are wonderful! You create new things and put a spin on old recipes, to me that takes courage and risk! I admire so much of what you have done and I agree with Kim, you seem pretty awesome from the peanut gallery!

I challenge everyone here (including myself) to pick out three things that I am constantly striving to be the best at, and just decide to be mediocre. See how it feels…

Roni,
I have been reading your blog for a couple of years now. I have it on my favorites and read it every day. This post reminds me so much of the way I feel about myself. The funny thing is that when I read your blog I am always envious of you and all that you are bold enough to do and accomplish. You seem like such a confident and strong person, and I would never attribute these feelings to someone like you. It is VERY refreshing to know that someone I admire for their accomplishments has the same struggles with confidence that I do. It inspires me to be a better person…to try new things…..to STOP thinking and just do!! I love your blog and I love, love, love your transparency. Just so you know….I would buy your book. Thanks for all that you do.
Kim
