In today's episode, I’m talking about a subject that comes up all the time, and that's 'Perfectionism'.
I want to share with you some insights into me and my world, and how I manage being a perfectionist as a small business owner.
I look at:
- how we can embrace different ways of thinking to really help us to be brave, to do the scary things.
- how it's okay to be rubbish at something because it means that we're just getting started, and we're going to improve.
- who decides what perfect is? Who decides what the standard is? Or what's good enough?
- how I think it all comes down to perspective because we all see things differently.
- how imperfection makes us a lot more relatable. It allows us to resonate and allows people to connect with us when we can show that we're not so shiny and perfect.
- how embracing being imperfect allows us to create that room for growth
and I share more about the Japanese phrase Wabi Sabi’ meaning “to celebrate imperfection”.
