No more perfectionism, or at least caring to try to be perfect. Even though it is impossible to attain.
So here is day one of my year of half-assing it. Perhaps if I really cared I could look for a cleaner, friendlier term for ass, but that's not what this blog is about!
I have had so many people that I try too hard, work too hard, etc. Today I stop. for at least a year... as a social experiment.
this is possibly the worst/best time for me to do this. I am coming up on the very last few weeks of my graduate school career (final paper and comprehensive essay coming up),writing my thesis, working two jobs, and raising three kids while taking care of a house on my own.
This will be my effort to chronicle my next 365 days of attempting to leave my Type A personality back at the beginning of the month.
Today I will be attempting to write a paper. My goal is to not really care what it looks like while meeting the minimum page number: 12. I also have a one page abstract due as well but I will work on throwing that together too.
It is not about having a final product that is horrible, but about not killing myself to work so hard on things. I am realizing that doing that for everything is killing me, quite literally.
So here is to not caring!!
:)
