My brain seems to review the day when I brush my teeth at night. 

Recently, during my brush I found myself noticing how I wasn’t enough in some way.

I didn’t spend enough time one-on-one with my kids.

I didn’t spend enough time on caring for my emotional health.

I wasn’t contributing enough.

I wasn’t kind enough to my family.

Ironically, the more I believed I wasn’t enough…the more discouraged I felt.

Discouragement made me less able I was to be more of what I wanted to be.  

Finally, I had had enough of feeling like I wasn’t enough. 

I know how brains work. They love to slip to into inadequacy.   

I started supervising my brain and looking for what was enough.

Each night instead of thinking about everything that wasn’t enough, I started writing down all the things I had done or been that day that were enough.  

And I found them.  

I found enough of them to prove myself wrong.  

At the end of each list, each night I wrote:

I am enough.  It is enough.  

And it IS.  

You are enough when you decide you are.  

And ironically, when you decide you are enough, you have the ability to do and be more.

Stop letting your brain slip into “not enough” mode.  

Notice what IS enough on purpose.

Enough is ENOUGH.
