When you are little, everyone always tells you "just do your best".
And then we grow up.
So what happens when doing your best just isn't good enough?

Because everyone needs a special place to call their very own...

I say fuck 'em, it's their problem, not yours.
I don't know how old you are, but after a certain age it's important to set boundaries. For example, my mother-in-law. We set boundaries time and time again and after years of her shit we just stopped talking to her.
People will always think they know better than you. It's your life, not theirs. Your decisions will affect you - not them. They bitch and moan and groan and get you all agitated then sleep at night soundly and peacefully.
If someone calls and continues to want to go down a path you are not interested in traveling that you say, "Well, this is not up for discussion, if you like we can talk about something else." If they continue...you say, "Well, I'll talk to you later, it was good talking to you but I have to go."
I know that, right now, my best isn't quite good enough. But, the alternative is far worse for those involved. So I attempt to keep plugging along. I will keep you in my thoughts.
My best is no longer cutting it either ~ I have to accept that I can't be SuperWoman & be great at everything. I'm doing my best as a mom, I'm doing my best at work, and I'm doing the best I can in my classes ~ the rest of my life has to wait until I have time again.
You can't let everyone else guilt you for not living up to their expectations, sometimes they need to just get over it & quit piling crap on us!
The worst ... is when YOU think your best isn't good enough. And that maybe? You weren't really trying so hard to begin with.
ACK. I feel you.
