Getting over my perfectionism by trying more chaotic painting styles
I remember a while back I said that people only change when they are ready to. It wasn’t said in anger or with bitterness, because I knew I am the same. Today I saw a new doctor. He looked at me and very gently said, “when you overthink, when you succumb to the perfectionism, you are committing a… read more

It is quite quiet right now, and I have once again exploded. Tis natural, there has been a lot building up for a while.

When we think about past moments, some of them greet us with a warm feeling, memories filled with innocence, idealism, imagination, and unconditional love.

My childhood trauma didn't make me stronger. It turned me into a people pleaser, afraid to speak up when I should. It made me apologize too much, even when I wasn't wrong. It pushed me into perfectionism and left me with low self-esteem. It taught me to prioritize everyone else's feelings over my… read more
When you are stuck, how do you get going again? I like to do an exercise. It starts with writing the worst prompt possible, then follow that with the worst opening sentence you can. Write a short story as badly as possible. It is a fun way to fight the perfectionism

I read today that when people are having "true fun" they report feeling focused and present, free from anxiety, self-criticism and perfectionism. We need more of that in this day and age.

I never feel enough, I'm always crave for better
I've been suffering from low self-esteem for so, so long, to the point that I'm always ashamed of my body, I couldn't go to the poll, couldn't lift up my shirt,... I'm still like that, but I'm getting better in learning to love myself. Well, I'm also trying to work hard on my body, tbh, because my… read more
What is something that you struggle with? Let’s get a bit self-aware. Open and honest. For me, I struggle with perfectionism and feelings of meaninglessness. Oh! And I daydream A LOT. There’s plenty more, but I don’t want to bore anyone 😂. (edited)
I've had a few people say, even this week, "Oh, you DON'T want (a liar, a cheat, an alcoholic)? You are so picky! You are a perfectionist, you demand perfection!"

The older I get the more I realize that everything doesn’t always have to be perfect or flawless. Just enjoy the journey of life and be grateful for all the blessings you have because perfection doesn’t really guarantee happiness.
Im trying to get in the habit of just making art more often even if its just a sketch. I love to create art, I just never make time for it so Im hoping by taking some of the perfectionism away Ill actually practice more.
Perfectionism isn't pursuit of excellence - it's fear wearing a masquerade mask. Fear of judgment, of inadequacy, of being truly seen. But flaws are fingerprints proving something is handmade by a human soul. What might you create if 'good enough' became your liberator instead of 'perfect'… read more

懷疑的種子一旦種下，微不足道的小事會一直滋養他直到長成大樹，遮住我頭上的陽光，也遮住你的陽光。 茂密的枝葉隨風搖晃，陰影會打在我們臉上、身上還有我心上。 我決定拔掉還沒長大的小樹，離開樹蔭也離開你。 天空如此之大，陽光如此明媚，適合在草原漫步，別待在樹下。
