Day 13: Ups and Downs

Not my most upbeat morning talk. Sometimes I have to spend time thinking thru things, and because you’re along for the ride, you get to see the not so pretty days, too.

    Hey Nathan,

    Thanks for sharing this morning. Hang in there.

    I find it so easy and natural to be overly demanding and critical of myself when things are not great or even when they are great. I love asking myself how I have failed or telling myself to simply push harder but the self-demanding / critical outlook is not trustworthy (although it always seems very true) and all it does is create and sustain the feedback loop of low-self esteem /depression. I did this for years.
    I get this way of thinking and feeling. It took me years to break out of the loop.

    Good morning, Mr Lowell.

    I hate to sound this cheesy, but I am a big fan of yours.

    I went through hard times last Christmas season : a nasty rupture… but aren’t they all ? As I was sad and a bit afraid to sleep alone, I got help… from you ! Each night, I listened to Ish and his no-nonsense solutions at problems and he kept me safe in the dark.

    I have listened to your Trader’s Tales 4 times in the last year. And I am feeling ready for the 5th time. 😉

    Thank you very much.
    Lucie, Québec City
