Practice Being Imperfect
I have an adorable little deck that I use for creative inspiration, and this morning the card I pulled said, “Fire Your Inner Critic.” I laughed when I saw that card because I knew it would give me great satisfaction to fire the part of me that wants me to perfect all the time. That part of me never wants to give me a break. It is relentlessly critical, to the point where it won’t let me do anything. It sabotages my creative impulses by questioning them to death. Every creative act gets put on the witness stand and is put through an excruciating inquisition.
