embracing imperfection
I have struggled with perfectionism my whole life. The idea of making a mistake has prevented me from taking risks or learning new skills.
I have recently attempted to embrace my imperfection by recognizing I am not perfect. This has been only mildly successful. I slide back into my striving for perfection paralysis pretty often.
I am now working to embrace my imperfections as a creative expression of my self. Making mistakes shows a perfect representation of where I am right now x and that is better than anything else I can do.
