Better Now Than Perfect

Writing a new post, replying to email or preparing for difficult conversation can be quite tough.
It takes time, sometimes it slips to procrastination. Why is that?
In my case I am trying to make it as good as I can.
Crafting sentences, preparing for scenarios, making sure it will be understood and to the point.

Lately I realised this approach costs me lot of time and builds tension inside me.
Also sometimes I am thinking things over too long. When I will finally come to the point that I am ready to talk, write or reply it is too late. Problem solved or is irrelevant.

I am still advocating thinking things over before they are written down or said, but I am cutting down significantly on prep time and lowering criteria of “now it’s good”. Not much harm will be done and this will solve more things faster without unnecessary stress.
As a result I am sure you’ll see more posts and more improvements on this blog.
