The challenges you’ve given this month are so new and interesting, there’s little baseline expectation of how I “should” progress on them. It’s been easier to stay curious and connected to the process instead of criticizing myself as a harsh outsider.
I'm so glad to hear that! :) And yes, the expectation of "should" can be so damaging and really hold us back. I'm glad these practice ideas have helped quiet that unhelpful voice! :)

Honestly, over a whole month this is the hardest one.
Yes, it usually is for people. But it's so important! The more you practice it, the easier it gets, just like any other skill. :)
