attractivegeekeryPeople have been giving me the oddest of looks when I tell them that my New Year's resolution is Giving Myself Permission to Fail. I think it's because they don't realize just how much "fear of failure" has kept me from.
Trust me when I say: A LOT.
Which is why I'm endeavoring to work past it this year. And if I don't: that's okay, because I've given myself permission to not.
It makes sense in my head at least...
My first trial of this new resolution arrived last night when I installed the new screen protector on my cell phone. The placement is perfect, save for one speck of dust that managed to slip in to the upper left hand quadrant of the phone. You know...right in direct line of sight.
It's driving me mad.
MAD I TELL YOU!
But...I'm slowly working towards telling that perfectionist portion of my brain, the biggest culprit when it comes to that whole fear of failing thing, that THIS IS OKAY. That it's just one piece of dust.
Or to give the sentiment a more blunt, and more funny as a result, spin: CALM YO' TITS.
Heh, tits.
