Hey guys! I am really struggling with this one.  Obviously, I haven't posted in two days because I have been avoiding it.

I'm not really liking the resume part of the process, I just want to leave it off because I hate thinking about myself and listing my accomplishments because I feel like I can't take credit for them, but I'm now just trying to focus on how I can help others get what they want through my skills.  I'm also focusing on what I like to do. I'm obsessing on making it perfect on the first try but this is a process and I just need to stick to it. 

Here is my New Resume using the appendix resumes as an outline.  My plan is to only work on it for thirty minutes today and then post it to avoid the obsessing.  Yesterday I worked on it for a while and then took a break and did not come back to it because I want it be perfect but I have to let that go and just do something.

Thirty minutes is up so I'm going to stop.  I was thinking about it just now and I think my problem is that since I'm an ideas person, ideas just come into my head and I don't feel like I can take credit for them.  What's funny is that sometimes I don't take credit for "bad ideas" either.  But I'm a paradox because sometimes I do take credit for my ideas, like when I feel good about my idea working or someone praises me for a good idea, or if I get upset when someone uses my idea and says it like they were the one who had it.  Also I do take credit sometimes for "bad ideas" like when I broke my shoulder after I had the idea to jump like I was a figure skater when I was on roller blades...

I'm embarrassed because many of my ideas have been very successful and I don't feel like I can take credit for them because I feel like ideas are a gift. 

Do you think you can take credit for ideas?
