Liked: Finding my space – Nitin Khanna

“I’ve tried daily blogging, daily journaling, daily private blogging, scribbling notes on a throwaway page on the net, all in an effort to just put words on the screen, to just ‘be’. It doesn’t matter that those words are perfect. Or, well, it shouldn’t. I still fret over it.”

Nitin’s struggles with perfection echo mine. No matter how much I try to just ‘be’ there is always a nagging doubt, a little voice saying “that’s not good enough.” I try to ignore it but it doesn’t always work. I have to remind myself from time to time and it was one such reminder that prompted his post.
We are told “you can only do your best” but we don’t always have to, we sometimes just have to do. We can come back to it, improve, iterate if needed.
