Striving for Perfection
I started this small section (unfinished) to have a place where I can put things(?) That has not yet been in a finished state out there. But in the process I seem to put the bar higher and higher for what I wrote here. Even when I have not reached the 10th post, I start worrying if any of what I wrote deserve to see the lights. Whether they are in a perfect condition to be published.
Unapologetic
One reason I felt the need to show perfect product is that I have a fear inside of me, that people may feel that they waste their time on what I wrote. But, it is assuming anyone read what I published 🙃. And I wrote in the first place for myself first (at least in (Un)finished), so that I put my brain to thinking mode and maybe leave small marks that I could trace several tears later. Maybe showing how I improve my writing fluency or even my thinking ability.
This is a reminder for me, here I will be unapologetic for my things(?). I just wrote for the sake of it,
- if anyone read it that’s fine,
- if it’s a waste of time, tough luck on you
- if you have anything to say, tell me (I will listen, but may agree or not)
Unperfect
I believe nothing in this material world that I know of is perfect as in completely 100% perfect all the time. Even some say that perfection is the enemy of good. Being unperfect means that I’d care less about how my things(?) Are perceived as perfect, complete, or good. Being unperfect means I’m trying to feel enough with what I produce given my own time and energy constraint.
It may includes:
- Due diligences
- Fact check
- Reviewing my work
- Nothing from above
But what’s important is that I’m open to being wrong and perceived as wrong, and open to discussion. Or just being open to agree to disagree.
Another Baby Step
The use of unperfect is intentional, Merriam Webster definition of it is just another word, Imperfect
I first thought it’s not an actual word, that’s why I used it. But, I’m wrong and I stand uncorrected (which surprisingly is also a word).
