My friend was just telling me how freeing it is to be bad at something at first, unlike his wife who is so gifted at a lot of things naturally. He has a curiosity and patience in being bad without limiting himself to expectation. I keep thinking about it

@DANCELIKEPUNKY I love that! I honestly feel like if I do well at something the first time I try I get really nervous to try again and break my streak lmao

DISCOMFORT WITH BEING BAD

I think my biggest flaw is my inability to stick with things that I feel I‘m No Good at. And I’m not very good at that many things. I hope one day soon to finally work through that, then the haters won’t know what hit them.

No shame for things you SHOULDN'T be ashamed of

Not in the sense where you do dumb shit and disturb people and things and have absolute zero shame. But just not shaming yourself into not trying things or doing things because you fear judgement and embarrassment.
We’ve integrated being ashamed into our consciousness over the darndiest littlest things. No more shame for goofing up when learning something new or waving to someone accidentally. Take it with stride. Just laugh at yourself once in a while… it makes a good story.
