DAY FIFTY ONE ~ MEETING FIFTY ONE SELF CENTEREDNESS
I don't like this topic. See how I already used the word "I" right at the beginning of that first sentence. I know that I am writing about myself but sometimes I feel like I am being too self-centered even in my sharing here. I feel guilt that I am too focused on me, me, me. I know that this program teaches that we are all very self-centered, but my counselor keeps telling me that I don't think of myself enough. The mixed signals drive me up the wall.
I know that in many respects I am self-centered. Like the people pleasing I do isn't so much for the other person. It is more to make me feel good about myself and what I am doing for them. Trying to make things perfect around my house is not really for my husband. It is more for me in the recognition I get from him for doing things (when he happens to notice). You see where I am going with this?. I guess I really am more self-centered than I thought.
