I would judge myself harshly when I'd make minor mistakes. There is an aspect of my mind that is very hard on me. I'm always striving to make improvements in myself and to make progress. I'm trying very hard to succeed in life. It used to be with me that even minor foibles were cause for consternation. I'm learning to take it easier on myself now days.
