feeling proud

I did once little task from the list of tasks and felt really proud, but then I looked around and saw that I actually did a lot of things and it's not enough to be happy for yourself. or this is? i really depend on my mother's opinion and approval and boom! i feel bad again. feeling of being proud of yourself when you have no tasks and can relax is a really great feeling. what i actually wanted to say is how it's easy for me to discourage myself with just one thought. my cat btw!
