the pressure we put on ourselves is not a bad thing

working on writing this afternoon, I give myself goals, like 5 pages by 1 p.m or whatever, I push myself with a deadline, it's not always easy but the pressure we put on ourselves is not a bad thing, it can bring out the best in us actually. Along with the pressure and goals, make sure you also throw in there acknowledgement for what you've done and accomplished, and give yourself a nod of encouragement. ~IJ
