Chapter 17.

Don't hide from the haters.

The greatest prison that people live in is the fear of what other people think.

David Icke.

Are you ready for a rude awakening?

Some people like to pretend that being a perfectionist means that they are held to a higher standard.

It makes them somehow better than you and me.

I call BS on that.

Perfectionists are just like you or me.

They're scared.

Scared they will be judged.

Scared of making a mistake.

Scared their work or ideas won't be accepted or praised.

When you strip perfectionism down, you are left with fear.

Here's a question to ask yourself.

Would you rather have published an imperfect book with just three errors, or would you rather be lying on your deathbed someday, telling your son or daughter that you had the perfect book in your mind, but you were never able to write it?

Done will always be better than perfect.

Yes, my first book, Confidence Creator, has three mistakes, and I am so proud of them.

Would I rather have no book and no mistakes?

Hell no!
