Perfect Imperfect

Who tells you to be perfect? 

October 11 in the shower, I was struggling with the November theme of the inspirational calendar that I’m publishing. The theme is beautiful but the normal creativity flow for content seemed to be stuck. The fluidity just wasn’t right. 

Overthinking this, I suddenly realized that I didn’t have a blog finished yet for the first Sunday of November either. As you might know, I post every first Sunday of the month for a few years now.

In general, I have at least a few half finished stock blogs waiting for the right energy and moment to be finalized. I pick one and finish it off. This time none of these seemed to be suitable right now. 

I felt stressed. 

It was stunning, because, while being stressed, I realized: Who cares? Do my readers care if I let it slip once? They might notice and regret that there wasn’t any today. Or they even might not notice at all. 

It’s me who created this perfect rhythm of monthly posts. 

Feeling the stress and seeing this self created loop was an eye-opener. 

Do I allow myself to be imperfect and skip it once or maybe twice?
Is it okay to let it slip?
Am I okay being imperfect?

The answer is “yes”, of course! 

Anyway, overthinking this was a blog in itself. Do I think it’s perfect? Honestly, most of the others were way better than this one. But considering the title, I decided to publish it, as it’s message is perfect in its own way.

So, here you go this is November’s blog! 

When is imperfect already perfect enough for you?

MY PORSCHE Last summer I saw a Porsche in Whistler. It was parked in front of the hotel where my daughter was doing an internship and it immediately stole my heart. THIS was going to be my Porsche one day. It had a special colour blue, greyish blue, which felt just like the right colour…

A little gesture means the world

Last year I was facilitating a storytelling training with my co-host bestie. When he entered the room he gave me this card. It was a simple caring gesture of kindness and it immediately created the positive energy that we always feel when facilitating together.  Sometimes this is litterally just all that it takes. What can…

I did an internship in Tunisia when I was 21. In the mornings, I drove to my work to an inland fashion factory. In the evenings, to pay for my rent, I had an extra job, working at the Ruspina hotel animation team, entertaining the hotel quests with sketches, dancing, singing. Back then and there,…
