Once again I am the last to get on the birthday bus. Welshie, Feliz cumpleanos, amiga mia.
Interesting that as some get older they lose confidence and worry more. I have been wrapped fairly tight over Covid and the election was nervewracking but they were/are serious issues that would concern any reasonable person. When I was younger I felt I had to be in control on everything but I have learned I can only control my reaction to things and it is of no use to sour my enjoyment of life because things happen about which I can do nothing.
As far as confidence goes I try to figure out the best way to do things and take my best shot. Once I learned a little humility and that the perfect is the enemy of the good things became so much easier. I am impatient and tend to rush into things with the attitude of "Git her done". One of my ways of doing things the best way is to never be in a hurry, think about whatever it is for a while, and not do the task until I am prepared to give it whatever time it takes. Maybe it is not so much confidence as lower standards.
It is snowing again but the basement is remaining dry (knock on wood) and there is nothing that has to be done today.
Be well and safe.
