soft🔷wizard@agony yea i struggle with this.. requires a perspective change towards incremental, process-oriented (like art is done)
rather than completionist, result-oriented (like they teach in schools)

@agony If you don't have a whole ass, use what you've got. Half-assed is better than nothing.

Sayuri Firebrand 💛 ⬜️ 💜 🖤@agony I have a variant of this I say to anyone working on something big that you often put off or you feel guilty you aren't doing (art usually)-- if you do something each day then each day you've done a day's work.

Heh... I was identified as gifted in elementary school, but I never did care much about school so I never had the grades for them to do anything about it with. I think I accidentally took this advice to heart back then, and it's probably served me well. It meant I had the time to get in to computers, and be a fuckup while I learned from older, smarter people. Got a great job now, so it all worked out in the end and I'm glad I didn't waste the effort getting A's.

I was actually really surprised I graduated high school. Apparently I passed math with 50.1%. I funny think it's helped me get a job, really. :p
