Today I'm giving you permission to really suck, like to do things so epically bad that it might even be embarrassing.

0:11.0

But that's okay, because I'm also going to show you the power of growth. Hey Cutterbugs, welcome back to the Clutterbug Podcast. Super excited about today's

0:30.4

podcast. We're talking about something that I'm really really passionate about

0:34.5

lately you know I want to be writing a book I am writing a book about the whole

0:40.0

concept of doing things shitty and giving yourself permission to epically suck at things.

0:50.4

And the reason that I'm super passionate about this is because I've noticed over the years a definite pattern and a trend in a lot of people who I love dearly in their lives where I'm seeing that they're not feeling fulfilled.

1:07.8

They're not feeling like they're reaching their absolute potential and what I notice is kind of the underlying connector between these people,

1:18.7

I have friends and family, my children, my husband, who have kind of said to me, you know, I wish I was doing more, I wish I could

1:29.7

do this or I'm not happy with where I am, little comments, but the underlying kind of reasoning of why they're not achieving it, it really does come down to a lot of fear.

1:42.0

Fear of fear. Fear of failure, fear of embarrassment, fear of

1:47.6

doing something wrong, fear of wasting time, and if we dig a little deeper than that really it's a fear of doing things badly.

where you graduated high school where you had like actual success in your life so of course you're afraid of failure because you haven't

2:36.1

had that much you haven't had a lot of practice failing whereas I'm coming from a

2:41.2

different side of the equation, which is just like a slew of epic failures.

2:48.4

I'm so used to failure because sucking is, know basically what I've always done my whole life.

2:57.0

I've always been the worst at everything.

3:02.0

So before I jump in and really talk more about this and give you

3:05.9

actual real life examples of what I'm talking about and how you can take the

3:10.8

philosophy of doing it shitty and apply it to your real life and see real life

3:18.0

results. I'm going to talk about that in a second. I want to encourage you while you're listening to this podcast to get up and take action on something, to do something and not just passively listen to this.
