Permission to suck
Technical note:
I have had some issues with comments not showing up, I think I have resolved that. If you try and post a comment (’cause I know you want to) and it doesn’t work, please contact me
Now back to your regularly scheduled post
The last few days have reminded me that sometimes you have to give yourself permission to suck. What? Permission to suck.
Yes, I had originally resolved to post to the blog every day, but I have been so exhausted and busy that I just haven’t had time to write. On Friday, after not posting on Thursday, I was beating myself up, wondering if I should make it up, but I had to give myself permission to suck just a little bit. I have been doing really well in the arena of posting and i have been rocking out the work, so something had to give. Permission to suck granted.
If you haven’t done a check up on your New Year’s resolutions, today is a good day to start. If you have done well on some and not on all, like me, then give yourself permission to suck and then get back on the horse and try and make those resolutions stick.
Comments seem to be working again! I like the idea that we sometimes need to give ourselves permission to suck… something has to give and we can’t be expected to give 120% all of the time. This is a good reminder to me that occasionally everyone just needs a break from doing everything for everyone all the time!
Esther, Thanks for commenting. I can’t agree more that in our technology/productivity driven world, we are expected to constantly run at 110%. I know that you are very busy, so remember to give yourself permission to suck.
