Will Perfectionism Get In My Way?
I started a blog a few years ago that didn't amount to much because I didn't know what I was doing at all. But I sure put a lot of time into it looking nice: neat lines, applicable sources and imagery, etc.
Even now that I have started this journey (again) the right way, I seem to be doing the same things. I spell check everything constantly. I can't a leave a post alone unless there's an applicable image or the text formatting and fonts are 'pretty'. It bugs me that it doesn't look exactly the way I want. But I want to be efficient and not dwell forever on minute problems.
I've taken to letting the house go just a little bit so that I can work on getting content on my site or a training lesson complete. I think my husband is a bit irked that I spend so much time on my iPad lately instead of paying attention to him. :)
In any case, maybe all this perfectionism effort might payoff? How do successful entrepreneurs reach the high places they reside in anyway? There's gotta be some that are anal about all the details, right?
Let me know what you think. Should I push my natural tendencies to the side in order to get more content out there? Or would it be better to take it slower In order to have quality from the start? I look forward to hearing from you.
Perfectionism is not really about doing things well its about having a belief that you do not deserve to succeed unless your perfect and no one is perfect so you will never be satisfied with anything that you do
