A month later
It’s been approximately a month later that I’m updating this website. Rather than just working on the Portfolio page that I was quite enthused about initially, I think the ‘trying-to-get-it-perfect’ in my own self-imposed expectations got the better of me. Yet again. Whenever that moment hits, I put a pause on it; much like taking a step back (1-2m away) from a painting, to reflect upon its progress.
On reflection, I apparently, do that quite often.
Now that I’m back, rather than be bogged down by the same thought, I decided to work on a different page — the Journal page. Reason being, I’ve been meaning to write. Been wanting to write. To leave a print of my thought process.
It may be insignificant to some. But hey, this is my journey. So, here it is.
I’ve started to be less conscious about what others expect of or think of my actions. If I don’t believe in myself, who will?
Thus, this personal slow process of doing things. Another reason is, setting personal deadlines for things that I love/want to do, doesn’t help. It adds stress, when it shouldn’t, really. Deadlines for getting work done is fine, since I get paid for that. Have come to a point where I differentiate personal expectations of things that matter.
