So your first sentence with “did pay” is the correct one. You did pay the balance. You did paid the balance. “Pay” is a main verb, and “did” (the past of do and does) is an auxiliary verb.

to give money to someone for goods or services: To pay is also to give someone or something money for an amount you owe: [ T ] We’ve got to pay the rent. [ T ] We have so many bills to pay.

“Has not paid” is a present tense (namely, the present perfect). It references the past but describes the present: the bill, as of now, is unpaid. “Did not pay” is a true past tense (the simple past). It suggests a past event: the customer, at some time in the past when he should have paid, didn’t.

Both mean the same thing, but there is different subtext to each phrase. The simple past would be “I made.” You might use “I did make” if you want to emphasize your action: “I made that cake.” “No you didn’t!” Yes!

The main difference between make and made is that ‘Make’ is the present tense of the verb while ‘Made’ is the past tense of the verb. Make and Made are two verbs that refer to the same thing. That is to say that both ‘make’ and ‘made’ originate from the same verb form ‘to make’.

Did you make it home safely is correct. Safely is an adverb and you’re describing ‘make it home,’ which is an action. Safe is an adjective which would describe a noun.

The correct light verb for mistake is make, and your phrase made a few mistakes is perfectly fine. In contrast, do is the wrong light verb, so your phrase *did a few mistakes is ungrammatical.

Atelophobia is often referred to as perfectionism. “As with any phobia, people with atelophobia think about the fear of making a mistake in any way; it makes them avoid doing things because they would rather do nothing than do something and risk a mistake, this is the avoidance,” explains Saltz.

It’s Totally Normal (and Healthy) to Talk to Yourself. Do you talk to yourself? We mean out loud, not just under your breath or in your head — pretty much everyone does that. This habit often begins in childhood, and it can become second nature pretty easily.

The Bible says we must put ourselves last if we hope to be a servant to all and reflect Christ (Mark 9:35). What that does not mean, however, is that we must “put ourselves down.” Negative self-talk, hatred of self, and putting yourself down are not commands found in the Bible.

Jesus said, “The last shall be first and the first shall be last… Whoever wishes to be first among you, shall be your slave. Be like the Son of Man who did not come to be served, but to serve; and to give his soul a ransom for many” (Matthew 28).

Be realistic and honest. Humility is simply about accurately accessing ourselves and internalizing our sense of self-worth. Remember that you are made up of the same materials as every single human who’s ever lived—no worse than the rich and powerful and no better than the underprivileged or sick.
