Perfectionism and Motivation

Today I was asked about my site and whether I want to continue writing for it (or something along those lines) and I realised that I actually had lots to write about - I just didn’t start or didn’t finish it.

So I did some thinking about why that is: It’s because I don’t consider my thoughts to be important, complete and/or perfect enough to publish, or because my motivation runs out after I have written down the core of it but before it is sufficiently polished for my standards. But I think I have to change that habit of leaving things unsaid, unwritten and even unfilmed, in the case of my long dead YouTube channel and big aspirations for a PeerTube channel.

Now, after a mere two paragraphs I have arrived at the end of my motivation to go on about this topic and the sum of it really doesn’t live up to my standards. But you know what, perfectionism is a curse and I’m gonna lift it. :)
