Healthy Declaration of Independence

Declare I Am Enough!

Happy Fourth of July!

At this time of year, I like to renew my healthy Declaration of Independence and celebrate my freedom from unhealthy habits that used to weigh me down, physically and emotionally.

This year, I am joining Jill’s “I Am Enough” project and basing my healthy Declaration of Independence on believing that I am enough. I am declaring my independence from unhealthy comparisons and unrealistic expectations and believing that I am good enough. Just as I am. Right here. Right now.

• I declare myself good enough, even though I am not perfect.
• I declare myself a good enough Christian, even though others are more faithful.
• I declare myself a good enough wife, even though others are more attentive.
• I declare myself a good enough parent, even though others are more nurturing.
• I declare myself a good enough friend, even though others are more thoughtful.
• I declare myself a good enough attorney, even though others have more famous clients.
• I declare myself a good enough runner, even though others are faster.
• I declare myself a good enough blogger, even though others have more readers.

There are several ways you can join Jill’s “I Am Enough” project and join me in declaring that you are enough, and encouraging others to do the same:

• Create a blog post making your “I AM ENOUGH!” declaration and link it up on Jill’s  “I Am Enough” page
• Tweet your “I AM ENOUGH!” declaration using the the hashtag #believeiamenough
• Share Instagram photos using the same hashtag, #believeiamenough
• Share the project with your friends and family

Will you join me and make your healthy declaration of  independence from unhealthy comparisons and unrealistic expectations? Declare, I AM ENOUGH!
