Standards…

Yesterday, during team practice, a well meaning soul gave good advice to his colleague. His friend, you see, was struggling holding himself to standards and looking to his team for help. “Show yourself compassion,” he was told. Nobody’s perfect, right. 

Truth.

Here is great advice, however. If you want to be your best self, make this a habit of the heart.

Hard on self, not down on self.

Hold yourself to high standards. When you fail. Get up. Learn. Levelthehellup. The harder on self, the easier you are on others. The reverse is true. What, friend, are you about? Damn.

Live hard. Love harder…
