Perfectionism vs Procrastination v3


I dubbed myself The Evolving Mother because

I want to continually be learning. There are many reasons why. The one for this writing is, as we learn we are smarter and make better decisions. I read my v.1 of this blog and cringe, just a little, at some of my word choices and phrases.


The cringe comes with a huge pat on the back too. Because I wrote it and PUBLISHED IT! YAY ME!


I could keep all versions of my writings in a file or I can choose to evolve. It has been so worth it. Visit my Evolutionary Designs store to see!


Writing this version confirms my excitement to be an evolutionary encourager! Ok. I will not be making any t-shirts with a big ‘e’ on the front and wear a big red cape. I will continue to keep putting one foot in front of the other as I make my way down this beautiful path I am traveling.


You may be wondering why I haven’t mentioned any of the challenges I’ve had in June. As I wrote in the forward of this email, it is all about perspective. If I don’t practice what I preach, I become obsolete. Integrity has become even more important to me. The bookends Perfectionism and Procrastination are opposites. Life happens within the books of these two. I have written this blog and caught up on many tasks while I recover from having had covid. It is persistent but then again so am I.


This is one reason why I considered changing the title of this blog series to perfection vs persistence. Pondering is a good thing too as it is part of the process. Peter would agree. Wink. Wink. Persistence is putting one foot in front of the other, even if you are a little nervous. Life happens and we cannot even try to control every aspect. Allow the plan to adjust as long as you stay focused on the objective. Take a deep breath and remember to evolve.
