Someone made this comment to me the other day....that they were their own worst critic. Then my friend Mark told me that in reading my blog he believed I was much too hard on myself. So am I am my own worst critic? I smile as I think about it. While I may be hard on myself in many regards I can assure you without a doubt there are a few people out there who think a whole lot less of me than I do. I know at least one guy who feels ill whenever he is "sinking" about me. Fortunately most of them aren't people I care to impress anyway so who cares.
No training today. I am actually on a mini vacation with Roo and the kids at Wheels Inn in Chatam. Of course I'm always on vacation so what does that mean eh?
I wish to dedicate day 180 to old neighbour Donna Coyle. A gentle woman who was incapable of criticism

unless of course the critic is someone whom you trust. Like a psychiatrist, then critiquing your life and suggesting possible solutions to your mistakes would be a good thing. Then in that case a critic would have great value. huh?! huh?!
Sincerely
The Devils advocate, and dedicated critic
