I'll admit it. I'm an unreasonable perfectionist. I have tons of unfinished projects, I keep things hidden because they don't live up to my standards. I tend to be confident about a project one day, then think it's the worst idea I've ever had the next. It's horrendous. But here, once I click REC, I can't take it back. Which sometimes leads me to a confident release. Others, I am left clawing at the door trying to get my RECord back. "Just let me have it back! Please, I don't like it! Nobody will like it! I could change it! I shouldn't have said it!" Too bad, self. While it's painful at times, I recognize these feelings as unrealistic expectations. It doesn't help how uncomfortable it is at times, but I know it's good. Like drawing in pen, every stroke is permanent. But here comes the big question. "So?" "What if I mess up?" "So? "What if nobody likes it?" "So?" "What if people think I'm stupid?" "So?" "What if I think it's stupid?" "So?" In a world of re-dos and mess ups, and restarts in everything, it's nice, and hard, to hitRECord sometimes. It strengthens my conviction, and confidence, just a tiny bit, every time I hit that red button. |
