Your Heart Is A Muscle The Size Of A Rat

your heart is a muscle the size of a rat

When I was a (unmedicated, undiagnosed ADHD) kid, like, under 12, my room was a mess all the time. Not shocking.

I struggled keeping it clean.

I struggled getting it clean.

I would sincerely put in quite a bit of effort and be really proud of the progress I made. Then one of my parents would come check and see how I was doing.

"Well, you've still got a long way to go."

That sentence. I was like, 11 when my parents were saying that to me. It was crushing. All my pride and satisfaction with my work was completely gone. All my effort was worthless to them. All they saw what everything I didn't do.

At the age of ELEVEN, I knew that wasn't right. That wasn't fair. I swore to myself I would never invalidate someone's work like that.

Now, at 30, I catch myself thinking 'I cleaned up, but my apartment is still so messy.' and I flashback to standing in my bedroom as a child, hearing those fucking words from my parents.

'No. I wouldn't invalidate someone else's work. I'm not going to invalidate my own. I did good. I made progress.' and I'll list the things that I DID get done to myself.

You deserve credit for all the progress you make.

You deserve credit for all the work you do.

It doesn't matter how much work you have left.

What you accomplish, no matter how small, counts. Even when what you accomplished was taking a day to rest and recharge and give yourself a break.

Never let anyone invalidate your work. Not even you.

Consider the following, what if I put you in a medium swimming pool and dropped in a tiny flake of dead skin from a fresh corpses foot into it ?That's a little gross but really just the same as the dead skin coming off from people's bodies all the time so that should be acceptable. As it's exactly the same as just being in a public pool where there will be dead skin anyway, the nature of the dead skin hasn't changed because the body it is no longer attached to happened to be dead rather than a live swimmer in the pool.

However if I were to put you in a lake that Is equally as many times bigger then pool as the corpse is then the skin and then I dumped a whole corpse into the lake and you couldn't see it.....then the ratio of corpse to water is identical to the first scenario,but I bet you would find the second one worse to swim in.
