I’m learning a very hard lesson, which is that sometimes things don’t go right the first time. 😂 Yes, this is actually extremely hard for me.
At some point in life I started believing that I should be getting things right the first time, every time. This has caused immense hesitation in the creation of new work over my lifespan, the fear of failure looming overhead at every turn. I deal with this every single day. (You should have seen me spiraling over my first loaf of failed sourdough.)
So this fun little experiment was good practice in working towards creating with low expectations, acceptance, and letting go.
