I'm working my way through the Guilt & Worry homework. There are some feelings I experience that I'm not sure if they're guilt or worry. I always feel I should do more, be better than I am. Like do more around the apartment, finally get around to putting up the pictures that are sitting against a wall, be more productive in the program or in writing a couple of screenplays I'm working on. Is this guilt or worry? I want to say worry b/c it feels like future living instead of past living. That I'm not doing all I can or should do and that I won't be as happy or fulfilled as I should be. Thoughts?

It sounds like to me you have guilt for things you think you "should" do. Lucinda suggest taking "should" out of your vocabulary. It is suggesting that you are not meeting expectations and that puts pressure on you and leaves you feeling guilty for things you perceive are required to be done to be a successful person. Maybe you could say to yourself something like "yes, I feel like my apartment would look better if I hung my pictures up however I've been extremely busy and a bit tired lately and I'll aim to hang them ________". This way you allow yourself to be free from guilt. I used to feel very guilty about not having a perfectly clean home. Now I recognize that I'm very busy and in order to keep my sanity the laundry just might have to pile up to the ceiling at times. Give yourself some slack. You are doing the best you can Best wishes.....
