The Perfect and the Good

Quick note: I recorded this episode a long time ago and I've made a lot of changes in my life since then. What I do for a living, the name of the podcast, the website, and the contact information (among other things) are all different. The best place to find updated information about what I'm doing is here.

If you try to do anything at all, people will find reasons to criticize you.If you try to avoid criticism by not doing anything at all, people will criticize you.

If you try to shoot for the middle and think you can hide in mediocrity, people will criticize you for that. 

The only way to avoid criticism is to be perfect, which isn’t possible. If you aim for bulletproof, then you’ll wind up with nothing at all.

This episode is all about not letting perfectionism rob us of our creativity, purpose, and happiness.

Thanks for listening.
