Peek-a-boo

What am I doing to avoid doing what I really should be doing?  Focusing on getting things perfect rather than getting it done. For example writing copy for a class that I am giving and focusing on the language when the really important thing is to just get my message out.  Hiding in this way looks as though I am accomplishing something, when I am really not. I am avoiding. I am grateful to a very kind colleague for pointing this out to me. Getting my message out is scary to be sure. That is however, what I want to do.   I will not allow the fear of getting my message out get in my way. I am preparing for a class on "Thoughtful Design" and can now move forward with my focus on my message rather than the specific language.  Feels so much more peaceful.
As you take two minutes to consider peace for our world today, think about how hiding prevents you from getting your message out.
