chaos-monkeyy:wantonwhale:dedalvs:incidentalcomics:How to FinishI drew this poster for Jon Acuff and his FINISH book tour. Big thanks to Jon for this collaboration, his book has some great ideas about how to complete creative and life goals.Love this, but reblogging it specifically for “Get rid of secret rules.” That’s one of the most amazing illustrations—and points—I’ve ever seen. “Trade perfect for done.” AKA the words I always told my students, and that I am apparently incapable of listening to myself bc my Brain says “great advice” but also…I developed a little half-joke with a research buddy years and years ago that wound up working better than I’d expected. Maybe especially because it was meant to be lighthearted and silly, it keeps a bit of the anxiety around the need for perfection at bay. Anyway, whenever I’m feeling overwhelmed by [cleaning, chores, writing/editing, whatever], I just remember me and my friend laughing and chanting GOOD ENOUGH! GOOD ENOUGH! at each other over and over, and it suddenly just.. actually feels true. And it still makes me smile, so, y'know, bonus. -- source link
