I like that I have a set of rituals that define who I am. I read and therefore I am a reader. I am always on time and therefore I am punctual. I scrapbook and make photobooks and therefore I am nostalgic. I am compulsive about cleaningness and therefore I am tidy. I put on nice clothes to go out and therefore I am put together.
These things help me not waste time on feelings of guilt. For example, when I yell at my kids to clean up in the middle of Saturday morning, I tell myself that's just who I am. When I put on makeup to put gas in car, that's just who I am. When I fold laundry in the middle of the night AND put them away, that's just who I am.
