Updated: Feb 12

Embrace the mantra, "My best is good enough," and watch as self-doubt fades away, leaving you confident and at peace, knowing you're doing everything you can.


Julie M. Gentile mantra of the week
"My best is good enough." Do the best you can in any given moment.

Do your best is a different message than be the best. Don't you think?


I didn’t always know this.


As a recovering perfectionist, I’ve had to learn that it’s OK to make mistakes and grow from them.


Your best will be different every day and it’ll depend on your self-care reserves. Did you get enough sleep last night? Have you been eating nourishing meals? Self-care can help give you the best chance to do your best.


Even if you have self-doubt, trust that you’re doing everything you can.


This video is part of A Second for Yourself — a video series on my Stand Up for Your Self-Care YouTube Channel to inspire you to create mindfulness in your busy day.

Mantra for moms: My best is good enough.

Journal About It: My Best Is Good Enough

Get your journal and a pen and find a quiet spot. Write about how you can tell when you're doing your best. What’s the difference between doing your best vs. being the best?
