Happy #FailureFriday So as you may know I have been learning how to surf. Anyone else take up a hobby and immediately want to quit? Same. This week was my 7th time out on the water and I am just not getting any better. In fact, I feel like I am getting worse if that is possible? This time around I barely got up on the board. Because that wasn’t bad enough, as I was finally heading back to the beach I just kept getting hit by these huge waves… four times, the surf board is like flying over my head, I am flailing around like an idiot, screaming for help. I finally willed myself back to the shore, collapsed and said: “I Am Never Doing This Again.” But then I remembered: I actually WAS having fun out there. Was I good? No. Is it frustrating not to see progress? Yes. But I am learning something new and hard, and quite frankly it’s OK if I never get better. Here’s to remembering that practice doesn’t make perfect, and perfect is boring anyway 🙌
