Yes, fellow CMOTHR – you are good enough. And so is the rest of the human race.

Heroism is having the courage to be Ordinary

Perfection is beyond us. And honestly? It’s boring. “Ordinary” isn’t a word for failure. It is heroism in its purest form. Good enough parents. Good enough friends. Good enough humans. It takes courage to look at your life with a generous eye and realize: this is it.

Life is Here (and I’m going to be my own best friend)

Life isn’t being lived “somewhere else.” It’s being lived right here. In the mess, in the traffic, in the laundry pile. We know it’s hard to make peace with the truth that you are good enough. But the alternative – constantly chasing a better version of yourself – isn’t good for anyone.

The Paradox of Growth

Here is the secret: Trying to get better is part of being good enough. But it is infinitely easier to grow if you first accept where you are. We can’t live without mistakes. What makes us human is that we change because of them. But we only grow if we take care of ourselves in the inevitable failures we make.

You are good enough just by showing up every day. By trying. By being human aka CMOTHR.
