I had given my virtual assistant till 2 pm on Friday afternoon to get my blog entry, and it was 10 am on that Friday morning. I was at a loss for words. nada. not a material object. For me, this was a novel experience. It’s uncommon for me to be wordless. I brought it to one of my mastermind groups because I found it to be so unsettling. “Guys, I don’t feel like doing anything today.” I remarked. All I want to do is go paint. But I am aware that there are things I ought to be doing. They said, “don’t do anything today.” “You’ve put in a lot of effort at work. Take a day off from work. I did not anticipate this. I’m a very active person. I work hard throughout the week to get things done so that on the weekends I can play. However, I paid attention, having faith that the ideal topic would surface with the ideal words in plenty of time. Then on Friday, I went to bed without having written a blog post. Ideas began to come to me on Saturday when I was driving down south and listening to podcasts. many thoughts. then I suddenly had the thought, “I could select any of them, but what if it’s not the best idea right now?” I ought to hold off and practice meditation first. I ought to write in my diary. I have to choose the ideal subject. I must locate the precise phrase. I ought to I laughed. My very useless inner saboteur, SLB (sneaky little bastard), was paying me a visit. With his insistence that I could and should achieve perfection, he was taking away my voice. The fact that I was traveling to a sizable fundraising event in southern California, where I would be surrounded by the elite of the philanthropic community, was giving him a lot of leverage. My inner child was anxious, restless, and ready to go home because she thought she wouldn’t measure up. It was an emotional “perfect storm.” These days, there are a plethora of action-oriented solutions available to overcome this sort of perfection barrier. However, such are just band-aid solutions. Performing the deeper work is the more long-term answer. this calls for a stronger level of self-love dedication and intention. When a deadline is approaching, taking the time to focus on oneself could seem indulgent. but it will set you free, I swear. Start by considering a task or endeavor that you have been putting off until you have mastered the idea or strategy. It may be a call to a prospective customer, a newsletter, a new program, or something else entirely. Take note of the thoughts you are having about it. Take note of your feelings about it. Determine the area of your body that is experiencing it. Now, pay attention to the aspect of yourself that demands excellence. What is her age? What may occur, in her opinion, if the project or activity isn’t flawless? Simply pay attention to your thoughts as they arise. It may not make sense to your mature mind, but to the terrified child inside of you, it makes perfect sense. Breathe, listen, and acknowledge that nothing dreadful is occurring. then after that, let your heart expand and visualize encircling your inner child in love. Hugs and a mystical love cloak are in order. After that, let her go play. She is not required to finish the assignment. Experience yourself as a grownup. who understands that perfection is unreal. Then carry out one activity that will advance your project. What aspects of your company are you battling for perfection, and how will it feel when you finally let go?
