Mindful Hack #104

Do you suffer from "perfectionism"? I seem to be encountering that a lot lately (and of course I'm fully aware of the fact it's only being mirrored back at ME).

By whose standards are we trying to be perfect? Where did we learn that? How can we UN-learn it?

I'm done with waiting until it's perfect before putting it out there. I think the much better option is for us to do it now, imperfectly, and figure out how to improve things as we go. Because, really, if we're caught in the trap of perfectionism, will it ever be good enough? And if we keep holding back, the world misses out on something that we might consider a little messy, but that would be just the thing someone else needs. Wouldn't that be a shame...

Mindfully yours,

Adriane
