Kristin Neff said once:
Unlike self-criticism, which asks if you're good enough, self compassion asks what's good for you.
I frequently find myself being extremely self-critical during my surf sessions.
Then often when I come back home and start to study my GoPro shots, I find out that - against all my expectations - my position on the surfboard, posture and movements have considerably improved.
That's the moment when I realize that I unnecessarily complicated my life in the water and should've rather fully enjoyed the experience.
It's good to be ambitious and goal-oriented, but what would life be without the fun ultimately?!
Maybe I would've catched some more of these bombs if I hadn't been that keyed up.
That's been my today's learning.. once more.
Enjoy your weekend, steemians! 💙
Much love,
