Someday I hope to share the above statements with my children.  I'm sure that they need reinforcement and while they don't show it ... my approval too.  My extended family and friends may even appreciate the above, why not be candid with them and let them know how I feel? After all, who isn't seeking the approval of others?  Who doesn't want to know what your expectations of them are?  

And today, I am sharing the above statement with my toughest critic ... Me!  I'm being honest with myself, I'm challenging myself, I'm setting expectations for myself!

Have a great day!
