Perfect

I was pondering on what the word perfect means to me and I could not help but notice how this simple exercise immediately brings about feelings of pressure and uneasiness.

For me, these crippling feelings set the stage for endless hours of self criticism, frustration and procrastination that in the end lead to absolutely nothing; in fact, they literally smash creativity, courage and confidence right on the head; my head to be exact.

Unhappy with my newfound realization, I was determined to find a way to shift my attitude and grow past these negative feelings so I can become the person I want to be.

Reevaluation of Standards

Our reality is imperfect and yet it is perfect in every way, why? Because life itself (nature) is in a constant state of development, always evolving to become better at every chance. Nature does this by maximizing output to the highest height possible, creating in this process new standards to measure ITSELF.

This line of thinking led me to notice that quite a few standards I was holding myself to were, let’s say; a bit whack you know.

Being perfect as in “without any fault” is impossible and it has led me to disappointments. Nothing will ever be completely perfect; however, having a personal standard of perfection is totally possible, and it has led me to do everything to the best of my ability.

To the best of my ability is all I got right here, right now and I’m happy that I finally have the courage to open my heart up and show you what I have and what I can do, right here right now.

I am willing to take baby steps to develop this side of my character; one step at a time, slowly and meaningfully, and I am stoked to be sharing this journey, my journey, with you.

Cheers for all the good stuff ahead of us!
