130: Psychological Permission to NOT Be Perfect [In Writing, Podcasting, Coaching, and Health]

If you were to look only at my Instagram account, you'd think I were perfect. [Arguably :-P.] Check it out at www.Instagram.com/laptoplaura

But that's just not the case.

  • Is perfection even a real thing?
  • Is perfection possible?

I argue:

  1. Perfection is impossible
  2. Perfection is NOT desirable anyhow

No one is perfect and that's what gives life and business its flavor, depth, and dimension.

This quick "voice memo" episode is recorded under the columned porch of the Pantheon in Rome, Italy. It is my favorite structure perhaps in the world.

To me, it is perfection (well, as close as one can get).

Yet, I share with you 4 ways in which I have been dreadfully imperfect in:

  1. writing
  2. podcasting
  3. coaching
  4. health

I share these with you in hopes that it will show Copy That Pops listeners more of the 'truth' and inspire you to take a breath and stop being so stressed out about perfection, no matter what you are working on.

Just enjoy the moment. The period. The phase. The process.
