Become a better version of yourself through your mistakes.

 Writing on my Evernote journal today I came up with an idea for today's post and it is an excellent idea to try to clear your mind when you open up your blog to write and you can't come up with anything. an open journal one that doesn't criticize or care about mistakes may be the best way to be inspired to write and come up with ideas.

I wrote my first WordPress blog on my www.pericoripiao.online website yesterday and I have gone back to check up on it to see what mistakes I made and correct them. but as I was writing freely in my journal this thought occurred to me. I am not going back to correct anything on my blogs I will try to write as clear as possible and keep it short and simple. and whatever errors and things I missed will just have to wait until my next post. the reason, why I am making this decision, is that in life when you make a mistake or just say the wrong things you can't go back in time and make things right. Whatever happened or what was said a minute ago can not be undone just by opening up a page and rewriting it all over again. I will learn from my mistakes by reading through them and then in future posts making adjustments. and I will try to apply the same principles in life. weighing my consequences before making a decision and taking action to start or commit to anything.

Sleep

 What I am experiencing today while trying to come up with a subject to write about. I start finish check it and draft it is not good enough is what I tell myself. I start again and after writing a few lines I erase everything. It's not that I don't have a subject to write about it's also not that I don't want to write. Actually, there hasn't been a day that I can remember trying so hard to get something written. I want to discipline myself to write every single day and the only way I will do it is by writing. So why can't I get something written that I feel comfortable with? the answer is sleep. I slept very little last night and that is what is causing my mind to not think clearly. If I could get enough of it, I would be unstoppable. We don't realize how important sleep is to our productivity and well-being. I have spent hours on and off just to get these few words written but I said that I would and I did.

Confidence

What is it that makes us feel confident? is it how we dress? is it our looks? is it how we smell? is it the car we drive? or the house/apartment we live in? our educational background? the amount of money we carry in our pockets? Whatever it is I know that I'm not self-confident. I am always second-guessing everything I do. I think before I am stepping out the door what will my neighbor think when she sees me. I think when I am about to walk into a bank what is the teller going to think of the way I am dressed. I think before I go into the supermarket the cashiers are going to notice how much weight I have gained. Why can't I act like a normal human being?   On a daily basis, I have to tell myself to get out there and step into the world and face these debilitating fears. Not to mention that now that I am getting older it just seems to be getting worse. This is my number one self-limiting factor. Caring for what other people think how do we get that annoying thought in our hea

Dad's last days

Image
 When alive we can never say that if we had done things differently we would have gotten a different outcome. Dad fell ill and all I can think at the time was should we just let him lie here against his will and watch him die. Or should I try to convince the rest of the family to consider moving him to a different clinic? I am pretty sure that most of us have faced similar situations in our lifetime. But the sad reality of all this is that when dealing with parents we are pretty much helpless when it comes to making them keep a doctor's appointment. My dad had a heart condition and he did make lots of changes to control his insulin, cholesterol, and blood pressure. But he missed the most important details which were the signals of a faltering artery or his low blood glucose dropping at night. During his last few days alive he encountered some mild chest pains which he ignored telling my brothers and his wife that it was gastritis, which lasted for two to three days until my younges
