So you typed, and deleted and typed and deleted and it was far from perfection. The point is, you kept typing.
What a gentle reminder that I too am not perfect!
Everyday I set out to be the very best version of myself for my wife, my family, my dogs, my friends, my work and the world around me. And everyday despite having a plan with the best intentions, invariably I stumble along the way. Then I feel like a failure and that all the good from the day was wiped away and forgotten!
But this feeling is all wrong as I know that the pursuit of perfection is a fools dream. That is not what this is.
What I am writing about is working hard to be a little bit better than the me of yesterday. And I expect to fail, because that is how you learn. I expect to fail today and then try again tomorrow. My desire is to present the very best version of me everyday even if that is a work on progress.
I just want to be a difference maker for the people in my life, with the promise that what you get tomorrow will be better than what you get today. I am so grateful that the people in my life are patient because the best is yet to come.
So as I set out to fail today, I am reminded that failing is not failure -- Failure is trying, but just not getting it right (yet) and you just need to keep typing.
