Everyone feels guilty from time to time. When we do something wrong we often feel bad about it. Many women feel guilty for unnecessary reasons. Women often feel guilty when they do nothing wrong. There are some reasons as to why women feel more guilt then men and many of the reasons date back centuries.
Since the beginning of time women have been socialized to put the needs of others before their own needs. When a woman does something for herself she often feels bad about it. This can be anything from spending money on themselves to doing an activity that they enjoy. While being selfish is not a good thing doing something for yourself now and then should not result in guilty.
Women feel they need to be perfect at everything they do. If something does not come out perfect or if a woman makes a mistake she feels guilty about it. Everyone mistakes sometimes and no one is perfect. Men often accept their mistakes. Instead of feeling bad women should learn what not to do the next time around.
Women often worry about everything. From paying the bills on time, to children, to watching every word that they say. Instead of worry about everything women need to learn to relax. It is better to focus on one thing at a time instead of everything all at once. Women also need to relax and let the small stuff be. Stuff happens from time to time and everything will work out.
Women also feel that they have to take control of everything and if sometime is overlooked it is their fault. A women needs to delegate tasks now and then. They can learn to share the planning of holiday evens and allow others to worry about themselves now and then. If the children miss their homework one night it is not the end of the world.
Women need to realize one mistake is not the end of the world and they can relax from time to time without feeling guilt.
