Don’t stress. Do your very best. Appreciate each step. Forget the rest.

Every day some or most of us avoid looking in the mirror or focus on the routine we are completing, not once stopping to look at ourselves or this total stranger that appears at specific times of the day or through casual peripheral glances.None of us are immune to the self-doubt and negative self-talk of our lives.
