Quotes and Hair Update

Sigh. The situation with my hair has been going steadily down hill. I try to justify my light pulling my telling myself it's just a hair here, and one there....and one there, and a couple there, there, there, and there. So after about a week of pulling from my scalp. I'm ready to take it one day at a time. And for me, however hard it is not to just quit cold turkey, that means I need to start with itty bitty goals. Such as, only pull 1 hair today, or make it through the day pull free, or even the hour.  I need to start being real with myself and recognize that just because I want it doesn't mean it will be easy. I know that Trich is a lifetime disease, but sometimes I forget that and think I can let my guard down. Obviously, I can't. And for now, that's okay with me. But for the moment, I want this more than I want to pull, which is one step in the right direction. And I am very proud my eyebrows and eyelashes are seemingly here to stay. I'm trying not to get too sure of myself, because school is starting and along with it, more stress, but I've never made it 2 months pf with my brows and lashes.
To help with the hair pulling, I've been trying to look up motivational quotes, and I thought maybe I could post one every day. If it's not that often, I'm not going to beat myself up, but I'm sure I could use the extra inspiration, and you all probably could too. Here's todays:
"Success is sweet: the sweeter if long delayed and attained through manifold struggles and defeats. "A. Branson Alcott
And to that I say, "Amen!"
