It Wasn’t That Bad

View Of Sunrise

There’s plenty to learn from when you observe past work, but it’s the mental reaction that’s most rewarding – and daunting.

The majority of time we look back at past work, watch our speaking engagements, read our writing, reflect on a project we led–we see that it wasn’t that bad.

It’s that same mental reaction, however, that stops us from ruminating on the past work to begin with.

In doing so, we know that we’ll be giving ourselves permission (or better yet, the responsibility) to do the work again and maybe slightly better.

After all, it wasn’t that bad the last time despite what we’ve been telling ourselves about it, so why not go at it again?

Not looking at what we’ve created is simply a form of hiding.

Stay Positive & You’re Not Hiding, Are You?
