Haleyâs Honesty Hour: Perfectionism stole the plot
How can you be someone who wants to try everything⌠and also be scared to fail at all of it?
Like the curiosity is there. The excitement is there.
But so is this quiet expectation to already be good.
And itâs not even about failingâ
itâs about how uncomfortable it feels to not be good right away.
So instead of sticking with it, we leave early and call it ânot for us.â
Somewhere along the way, being a beginner started to feel embarrassing
instead of⌠the whole point.
Perfectionism will really have you thinking
if itâs not impressive, itâs not worth it.
But maybe more of us are in that in-betweenâ
wanting to try, but scared of how itâll feel if weâre not great.
And maybe the shift is just staying a little longer.
Long enough to remember itâs allowed to be fun, even when youâre figuring it out.
