Have you ever felt like what you are doing is just not good enough, or maybe it’s good, but just not enough? Do you seem to have this feeling a lot? If you do, I congratulate you, I think that is wonderful!

“What?!”, you say, “Richard has finally lost it!” How could self doubt be a good thing? I look at it this way… feeling like you’ve not done enough and feeling like you can’t do enough are two different things. I’m not talking about self doubt, I’m talking about awareness. If you feel you’ve not done enough then you are aware there is more that can be done. Look at it this way. If you say; “I’ve not done enough” you will be able to continue to move forward and accomplish more. If you say, “I’ve done everything I can do”, you stop – you will accomplish nothing more. Of course there will be those times where you have done everything you can do, but as Richard Bach wrote in his beautiful book illusions; “Argue for your limitations, and sure enough they’ll be yours”.

You see, this automatically gives you an edge in life. If you challenge yourself with this awareness that you’ve not done enough, then maybe you’ll do just a little bit more tomorrow. Trust me, every little bit counts. The greatest avalanche can be caused by the movement of the smallest pebble. How many millions of people are resigned to what it is they have, or accomplished. How many millions of people say every day; “this is as good as it gets”. I don’t believe that you are one of those millions. Only 5% of the population are the richest or most famous. You might not desire to be rich or to be famous, but if you are aware of the littlest things you are moving in that direction – like it or not.

So, the next time you are feeling down because you think you’ve not done well enough, or not done enough remember that you did something, and that’s a thousand times better than doing nothing!

Keep moving your pebbles, one by one… your avalanche will happen!

Love and Bright blessings ~ Richard
