I heard a NPR TED talk today about perfectionism. It was commentary as to how our society is continuing to “ create “ kids that feel they need to be perfect. I so know this feeling. It wasn’t purposeful nor anyone’s fault, but my desire to be perfect has controlled my life for as long as I can remember. It is one of the reasons in my mind only of course, that keeps me from consistently being able to be in the moment, to think only in the moment. How do I redirect a life long way of thinking? How can I continue to “ think in haiku”? Am I allowed the way forward to be imperfect and be ok with that?
