Perfection. It seems like a worthy goal. No, it is not! It is the dysfunction I struggle with every day. I fear I’m not doing it right. I fear I’ll be misunderstood. I fear I’ll say something and later change my mind. I fear . . . You get the picture. I fear that I will not be or do perfection. And I’m right. I will never be perfect. I can never say or do anything perfectly. Which leads me to a personal revelation.
If something is worth doing, it is worth doing WRONG!
That is the exact opposite of what most would say. However, for me (and maybe you?), the other phrase makes me hesitate. Makes me second guess myself. Makes me unsure I’m finished or ready. Face it. Everything is imperfect. I will never be able to do it “right,” ie perfect.
But doing it imperfectly now is better than not doing it at all or too late.
I don’t know how to begin . . . So I’ll just jump in . . . . Your responses will help me know how to proceed.
