It’s Impossible To Look Better and Look Good At The Same Time

April 02, 20251 min read

“It’s impossible to get better and look good at the same time.”

In her highly acclaimed book, The Artist Way, Julia Cameron says when we are learning and growing we won't look our best.

Why do we hold ourselves to that standard?

We don't try new things because we may not succeed.

But who expects us to succeed 100% of the time?

No one but ourselves.

This mindset is an attempt to keep us in our comfort zone.

Our brain is working so hard to protect us and keep us in familiar territory.

But that territory doesn't serve the you that wants to grow.

Growing means moving into unchartered waters and being willing to stake a claim to create a hypothesis for something new.

We then do our best and move steadily forward.

We won't be 100% right and we may miss by a mile but we are 99 miles closer than if we had not tried.

And if you're worried about looking good, let me assure you no one is watching.

Everyone is too concerned with their own challenges.

You get to choose if you want to get better or if you want to look good for people who aren't watching.
