Please stop trying to be perfect.
Many of us have this twisted notion that everything we do must be flawless. Any flaw or failure is a sign of weakness. Any less-than-intelligent question is a sign of stupidity. I’m here to tell you that this is a total crock.
Our fear of failure often keeps us from succeeding. We are reluctant to try new things because we might not be good at them. Life, however, is a trial and error process. We all stumble a few — or maybe more than a few — times, but we usually get back up.
