I want it now !
It turns out that as I’m building out my other website, the desire to have the completed project at hand, is eating me alive. I know what it’s like to build a fresh skill. I’ve done it so many times.
I think that this time it feels different because the project is so well defined and I’m building with no hand-holding. I almost feel like a hypocrite. I’ve told my daughter to feel the burn so many times when she’s building a new skill that she has developed an hello-old-friend recognition to that burn. But it has been quite a while since I’ve been this much of a neophyte. I’m a bit disoriented by the emotional component.
Reminding myself to breathe
As I remind myself to breathe through the discomfort and cling not to the desire for the completed project, the wisdom the bubbles up is that it’s about the process. All of it is about the process. There is no “finish”, in fact. I only have to be in the process.
