I loved your post so much. You have described a lot of the same thoughts that I have. Your attitude of seeing your progress gives me hope that one day I will also be able to accept the compliments. I struggle the same way you do when it comes to compliments and honestly I know I'm my own worst critic. Thank you for sharing your words they are very inspirational.

We are definitely our own most potent critics. Compliments whether or not we feel we deserve them are always earn always meant to be delivered with love. That is a lesson I have had to learn. I had a mental shift on this recently as I gave a compliment to a colleague and I saw the mental shrug in their face, and I thought holy cow I do that too, when I gave the compliment I meant it. It taught me if I am given a pat on the back, I need receive it, I need to embrace that encouragement, and I need to work hard to feel I deserve them. You are awesome! Thanks so much for opening up and for your kind words. I appreciate it.
