Context: i am feeling reflective after running a race yesterday and finishing slower than i had hoped.
Putting in work to achieve a desired outcome, but coming up a bit short... you still worked hard and made a valiant effort! Go you!! You went for it and, all things considered, probably did a great job objectively; everyone else is likely in awe & wildly impressed by [insert achievement here].
We are our own worst critics. But we are also our greatest cheerleaders. Keep working hard and setting goals - and remember that a goal you set is just a goal that you set!! Hashtag character building

You’re almost there. Resist rushing through it. Take your time. Take a break. Keep going. Do it well. Reward yourself. Get that completion dopamine, then enjoy a sweet treat for your efforts (or whatever feels nice to you). Soon you’ll have a body of work. It feels good to see it accumulate.

this mindset was taught to me when i first started running (thank you coach she’s a real one 🥹) and i guess this applies in other aspects of life, like building habits.
also this is a very personal fuck you to perfectionism bc i finally finished updating my 2024 portfolio wooooooo
celebrating incremental progress and focusing on building momentum is better than letting perfectionism drag you down 🙂↕️

very important to find the middle ground between just giving up easily and letting yourself rest after a reasonable amount of progress has been made…
