Often, in therapy sessions, I encourage people to give themselves credit. Many people aren’t accustomed to giving themselves credit, which can definitely take practice.
Last night, I encouraged people to give themselves credit on Twitter (and I’m giving myself credit for this tweet, here and now):
I can also give myself credit for all the photos in today’s blog.
I want to give my son Aaron credit for making those cookie ice cream sandwiches while we were watching the new “biscuits” episode of the latest season of the Great British Baking Show, in honor of National Homemade Cookie Day in the USA.
I can take credit for this other tweet …
… but I don’t think I can really take credit for the other images in today’s blog.
I definitely can’t give myself credit for coming up with the National Days, but I can give myself credit for naming this car …
… The Canary.
When I search YouTube for “giving yourself credit,” there are many things to choose from, so I’m giving myself credit for making a decision and sharing this:
Thanks to all who might give themselves credit (perhaps in the comments section, below?), including YOU.
Score one again for Ann!
That is some collection of animals that are unusual both in name and in appearance!
Oooh, I love that coach and her message. And I love your message, too. Thanks, Anne.
i give you credit for always showing up, showing us glimpses of your world, and challenging us to look into ourselves to become better people. i give myself credit for always learning something everywhere i go, helping me to understand and be open to the world
Harley is surrounded by more toys than usual. And Joan is looking a little weary of her durable cone. I give you credit for some great photos.
The sandwich cookies look good. I put on weight just looking at them 😉
I’m giving myself credit for knowing the osedax is a worm as soon as I read “polychaete” even though I’d never heard of them before, and also learning about a new animal.
These may be small things but they’re good practice.
Give myself credit for recognizing that Harley is a Buddha, and Joan a Budai.
