Episode 86: Anti-perfectionist Hacks

In recording this episode week after week, certain themes keep coming up in Shannon and Janine's conversations. This episode, we distill them down to four hacks: (1) getting in touch with what's important to you; (2) asking yourself, "Is it good enough?"; (3) noticing when you're in perfectionist mode and (4) recognizing that something is better than nothing. Discussion topics include: • Pot stickers! • Getting in touch with what’s important to you • Avoiding overindulgence by getting in touch with what’s important to you in the near future • Asking yourself “Is it good enough?" • Noticing when you’re in perfectionist mode • Asking yourself, “Are you putting in more time than this project merits?" • Shannon’s pride over not correcting the texts she sends • How having a word of the year can help you get in touch with what’s important to you • Janine and Shannon’s 2020 words of the year • What a big year 2020 will be • How overwhelm or resistance can be clues that you’re in perfectionistic mode • Remembering that something is better than nothing (and done is better than perfect!) • Our quest for musical submissions from our users
