Post 0003

Post 0003 – Voltaire said, “The best is the enemy of good.” This is proven true in my life. For me, it looks like perfection is the opposite of done. In short, I have a difficult time completing projects. Somewhere along the way I find myself bogged down trying to do the job perfectly. Whether delivering on a perfect timeline, or waiting until all conditions are perfect before I start a project. I let my desire for doing something the perfect way keep me from performing at all. Pursuing perfect not only keeps me from starting, it also keeps me from completing a project.

In my pursuit of perfection, I get bored, Rarely do I have the satisfaction of a job well done, because the job is never finished. I will start blogs, but “stuff” happens to disrupt my plan. Then, I don’t stick to the plan and just stop. I stop everything – writing, creating, and producing, I stop contributing to the world. My voice is silenced, because of the perceived need to do something “perfectly”. This stops now! I am going to live and work by Nike. I am going to “Just do it.”
