Does It Have To Be Perfect?

Beach Notes by Guest Writer Suzie Cheel

On our beach walk on Saturday,
I asked Des this question.

Do you sometimes wonder why
you aren’t meeting the goals
you have set yourself and
may have even announced to the world?

Do you get satisfaction from ticking off your daily to do list or do you wonder what happened to the day? Maybe you have have even stopped making a to do list!

If you have fallen down on some of these things I know how you feel.

I looked at my life over the past week and asked “Hey what is going on here?”

I listened to that small inner voice, my intuition. I noticed how my tummy felt.

The answers came. I am great at getting clarity about where I am heading. Even better at setting big hairy goals.

What I haven’t been doing is following through on the tasks that need to done on the way to goals.

I also see my overachiever, Wonder Woman streak is coming out. Wonder Woman needs a holiday while I get on with business.

Putting that another way I have to accept the fact that not everything I do can be perfect the first or even the second time.

What’s wrong with edition 1, then a revised edition 2?

We could all learn from some of the big guns. Take Microsoft, they have made their fortune with getting people to buy version 1.0, then 1.1 while they iron out the bugs.

Do you ever experience the “it’s not perfect” roadblock? What do you do about it?
