I think that's a really common thing . I know that's a really common thing for creative people and people in general to hold themselves back because they're afraid it won't be good enough . And I think there's a limiting belief there about well finishing . I mean , nothing's ever really finished right ? If I let that come in as my primary thought pattern , I wouldn't have finished the book right . I mean , if I like let that come in as my primary thought pattern , I wouldn't have finished the book right ? We all have that . I mean it's interesting because I wonder if you have a and anybody really , as you guys are listening to this the distinction between high standards and the value of doing good work versus being good enough . Do you see how they're very different and yet so similar ?
Speaker 2I'd never thought about it that way , Because I do have . I think I have high standards .
Speaker 1But that's a value , right , like I could say . I could ask you why is that important to you ? You have high standards . That's not , I'm sure , because you want to be hard on yourself . It's because what ?
Because some things are important to me . My dignity is important to me , and the way that people perceive me is important to me .
Speaker 1Integrity I guess that's the word I'm looking for . Yes , that's integrity is yes , that's screaming loud and strong . And it's interesting because it took you a while to get there , because when you first said it , you know well , because I care about you didn't say my reputation , dignity , you said you know I care about my dignity . That implies that you'd somehow lose your dignity if you you know what I mean if you didn't do it well , which is
interesting . So that's fear-based , right , I get it , we all do . We all want to be dignified , we all want to be respected in the world , right . But that can be fear-based and that can really get in the way . A conscious-based thing , which is integrity , which is something that you control and nobody else does . You can control that . So there's no need to be fearful of not being good enough if you know that you're going to give it your best , because you can't control the rest . You can't control what people say .
Speaker 2Right and that is something that I am learning very much , especially in the last year is I don't have control over anybody else , so I just need to let it go 100% , just let it go .
Speaker 1You want to let it go , right , and when you want to let it go , it's like I get to , which is choice with gratitude . Just let it go Right . Go for it . Not because Lisa told you to , you know , not because you're going , I'm going to let go . You're just because you get to .
Right , it's like you have .
