I grew up with parents who were certain that they always knew why others did and acted the way they did. It’s taken me many years to foster in myself an openness to the possibility that other people are much more complicated than that. Developing a sense of humility abt. My judgment of others has opened some unexpected opportunities for me —but of course not always.

Judgement of myself and what others may think is definitely the source of this negative thinking. I'm trying to break the pattern of mind-reading what others may think when I'm not able to do what I used to. Humility about who I am and what I'm able to do now is very important, I agree. I'm working on that, and remembering that my situation is so very much better than many people.
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond!
