I think it is part of being an overachiever – idealist.

HI Brooke,

So good to see you again. I know what you mean by it. I used to think that way too. But I shifted away from those *lables* when I realized that those are other people’s perception of me. No one can achieve more than they can, so you *can’t* be an overachiever. If you can achieve more than most, it simply means you are exceptional or remarkable, but calling you that would make them unremarkable or average, and who wants to accept that?

I am who I am and coming to terms with that fact. I have been calling myself Mister Weirdo for almost 15 years, yet have not totally felt comfortable being one all of the time. But that is changing.

Your reactions to biting off more than you can chew is soooooo familiar.

Love, Rasheed

HI Croz,

Glad you stopped by and that you like the article. I actually knew about the $64,000 question. I am a trivia junkie, or used to be, but as I wrote, that what what flowed out of my pen, or rather my fingertips on the keyboard. I think allowing myself to silly as I write is going to be fun.

Appreciate your feedback.

Love, Rasheed

“You only give yourself the challenges you intuitively know you can handle.”

I like that, thanks for the comment and the feedback.

Hi Rasheed!
Yes, I always, Always, ALWAYS bite off more than I can chew. I think it is part of being an overachiever – idealist.

So, what do I do about it? I panic. Every time. Then, I try to rationalize. Sometimes I have a good sulk about it (the WHY ME drama comes to town…). But the thing that keeps me going is this thought / idea that pops into my head eventually…. “This is something you wanted at one time, and now you have it. Stop resisting it and deal with it. Or, now that you have More Information, make a different choice.” That’s about the time the WHY ME drama responds, “Oh, ya.” and goes away :0)
