Embrace Embarrassment
Most people will never try anything new or significant because we’re taught from an early age to avoid embarrassment. The truth is nothing you start will be successful at the beginning. You’re going to look like a fool when you step out on faith. That’s par for the course.
Being embarrassed is the tax for trusting your talent. It’s going to suck at first. Mistakes will be made. Let yourself off the hook for having a perfectly polished product from the beginning. You simply can’t have a finished product at the starting line and yes it’s going to be embarrassing sometimes when you fail in public.
Don’t stop pursuing excellence. You’ll likely make a fool of yourself but don’t stop. After all fools aren’t afraid of failing. Excellence requires that you embrace embarrassment.
