Of course, there are areas of our lives
where 'C' doesn't make it…
If you are performing brain surgery we
all hope you are aiming for A+!
But, but, but…
How did we get stuck thinking that
everything needed that same standard of achievement?
If you guessed 'school' you're probably
on a good track.
Unfortunately, we usually aren't taught
that different degrees of effort - and achievement - make sense for different
tasks!
Have you ever found yourself stressing
about the perfect wording for an email response - to a friend?
Yikes!
DANCE WITH IT! EXPERIENTIAL APPS
An opportunity to
experiment with some fun ideas…
Think about the
amount of time you spend on different tasks…
If you were an efficiency expert how
would you rate your time strategy?
Do you find yourself putting off simple
tasks because you don't have enough time to do a 'thorough' job?
Do you need to set
aside a whole block of time in order to do that perfect job or do you let
yourself do bits and pieces as you go?
Think about tasks that you struggle with
doing… might these be examples of things where you demand perfection?
As an
experiment: For one day give yourself permission
to do things half-way. Remember, this is
just an experiment so breathe deeply and have some fun with it…
What happens as you
do this? Learn anything interesting?
