Hey Jess! What a gorgeous, glowing person you are. I love everything you have to say. They are all mantras I repeat to myself every day, as I sometimes struggle with my balance between being a career woman, an artist, a woman, and a human. But it's so great to have it all summed up so well like this. Thank you! This is just what I needed today.
Well Julia, you know precisely how to make a gal's day! Thank you deeply for your kindness and encouragement. If you ever figure out the right balance between the loads we all carry, please share. In the meantime, I really think it's a process of figuring out what definitely doesn't work along the road to what eventually works and feels a bit better. xo
Jess, thank you so much for making these videos for Spring! I have really enjoyed hearing what you had to say and love your sweet energy!
I especially loved hearing you say that at times, it's okay to aim for a B-. I'm definitely that person who needs to be THE BEST at everything I do (or else is it even worth doing?) and lately have been giving myself a bit of a break and realizing that I can't be perfect at all I do. And you know what, nothing's fallen apart yet. It's really quite amazing how things remain pretty much okay even when a B- is completely acceptable. Thank you for reinforcing this, sweet lady!
Hi Tiffany,
Thanks for your encouragement - doing these videos definitely brought me out of my comfort zone and your feedback is *such* an appreciated kindness.
Kudos to you for having the wisdom to start playing around with splendid imperfection. As a fellow recovering THE BEST addict, I keep coming back to SARK's advice to "do more things badly." And you know what? Life is more fun! I'd love to hear more about where you're proudly aiming for B-. xo!
Things I'm committed to doing at a B- level for the short term:
Cleaning
Furnishing my apartment
Tweeting
Networking offline
My day job
Daily yoga practice
Ohhh, those things are scary to admit, but they're true. I don't care what people think about that, I only care that acknowledging those things are already operating at a B- frees up my mind to think about what I want to be an A+ right now in my life...
I love your reminder that I am a carbon-based life form. I hardly EVER think about that. It explains a lot of things! And who would have ever thought of aiming for a B minus. Oh yeah, I'm going to be doing that now. I can feel the freedom already.
Jess, your beauty, kindness, and insight are inspiring.
