I'm Not Perfect!

I'm Not Perfect!
Can you actually stop abusing yourself with overeating and under activity? If you’re like me or like any of the thousands of people I’ve worked with, you actually cannot solve your own problems.

If you cannot control yourself, or help yourself lose weight, it’s high time you admit that reality. You can’t stop abusing yourself with too much food. You don't take care of your body by using it. There's no harm in admitting you have a problem, and that you want to work on it.

Let go of the pride and join the human club – we’re all making mistakes. We’re all a mess, and we’re all struggling. Join me in admitting: I’m not perfect!

The ticket to solving problems is first to acknowledge you have problems and cannot recover by yourself. That’s the first step of all the highly successful Twelve Step programs. That’s the first step as taught by all religions. That’s the first step of psychology and therapy.


Stop blaming others, yourself, or God for your shortcomings. Accept the fact that you’re not currently your best, admit it, and then all will fall into place. You can then begin to be who God wants you to be.
