There are many things in life that may be too hard to handle on your own. It may be taking care of someone all the time, of too much to do at work that you need a hand with. It could also be too much debt and you need help organizing finance...whatever it may be ASK FOR HELP!!! Some one is out there, waiting to be used, and waiting for you to ask them for some help.
I usually fall under the category of " if I want it done right, I need to do it myself". This comes back to bite me in the booty all the time! I find myself too stressed and over-worked and needing help because when I could have just used help I didn't ask. I like things done in certain ways...people have said I'm a little OCD - maybe they're right. However, I now know that I need to just "chill" and allow others to help me so that my load is not too heavy to carry.
My hubby, in very nice ways (most of the time), likes to say I'm a control freak...and he's right. When I lose control it's not so pretty. I would even go as far to say that losing control is, in fact, one of my biggest fears. I HATE IT! This also comes to bite me in the booty often and I find myself "out of control" (ironic, huh?) probably more than I would've been if I hadn't tried to stay in control in the 1st place! WOW....
Bottom line....
- Know your limits
- Know God's will
- Know when to quit
- Know what's important
