Imperfections

Friday, October 16th, 2009

If you’re like me, you often feel that “good enough” just isn’t good enough.  But, I am learning to see things differently.  Feeling the need to do things perfectly drains so much energy and waste time and effort.  Perfectionism also produces a lot of unnecessary stress and pressure and can lead to burnout.  Start saving your energy for what counts!  Start by acknowledging the following:

No one is perfect, and you don’t have to be.  You’ll make mistakes, but so what? You’ll learn and grown through them.  I hope.  Recognize the difference between a mistake and a failure.  Take a moment to share your thoughts, remember you’re helping somebody!  Cheers.
