- Go to On Perfectionism
What a great quote!!~
---- I struggle with perfectionism as well --- can't stand when I find myself performing perfectionist pitty-pats...so I do something to disregard it by oh simply letting a stray hair wander --- or leave a spoon in the sink
and well, it's a hard one to keep in check ~

Bird By Bird is my favorite Anne Lammot book - and I keep the notion of the shitty first draft in my head every time I start a writing project. Otherwise, I'd be paralyzed and unable to write one word! Great quote and thanks for the reminder!

This is one of the best quotes I've ever read. I would say that it is "perfect". I am purloining it now. I'm copying, saving, will use it somewhere. Well, I'm going to first send it to some friends of mine. It's good to hang around people like you, people who are well read. I'm pretty ignorant of anything because I gave up reading. And besides, all I read when I did read was spiritual stuff and science fiction/fantasy. It proves that it is not what you know but, who you know. I know you. So, I get all of this stuff for free.
