“Here’s how to break through the perfectionism: make a LOT of mistakes…celebrate messes—these are where the goods are…500 people may tell you that you are bitter, delusional and boring. Let me ask you this: in the big scheme of things, who fucking cares?”
We waste so much time and energy worrying about what other people think. The most sad waste happens when this worry stops us from living life: not putting your art in the world out of worry that it’s not good enough, not swimming in the ocean out of worry that your thighs are too big, or not telling someone that you love them out of fear of rejection. We don’t find time for what matters, we make time; what we need to find in ourselves is the courage to live our priorities and in doing so, our lived priorities become our destiny.
