Dear Meg:

Thank you for the update. I am excited for you! You are doing the right thing for yourself, as long as you know that at times, you will feel weak. At times you will doubt yourself. At times you will be very tired and very tempted to keep going with the same-old-same-old.

At those times, feel free to come back to your thread, and when I am at the computer, and I see you posted, I will reply to you first.

When you do doubt yourself again (and it will happen), you don’t have to reverse all the way back to paralysis. Make a note to your “Doubting Self” to be read at those times, tell yourself to not engage in that doubt- acknowledge it and disengage.

Do be true to yourself, to your desire to matter in your own life.
