Did you know that finishing can be BAD for you?
Shocked Reader: “What?! Seriously Tanya – bait and switch! You
are always going on about how Alphas are Great Starters and POOR Finishers! I just got my ‘I FINISH’ tattoo!”
No worries. Finishing is still sacred in my world, however I have to teach you about the exception to the rule.
Don’t finish things that are:
1) Crappy
2) a Distraction from a prior clear purpose or
3) You should never have started.
Ego tries to get you to do these things because you will fail, spin or never find what you SHOULD be doing.
I started knitting a hat with some beautiful and funky yarn. Turns out, this yarn kept changing sizes from poofy to super thin. It was a royal pain in the arse to knit with. Know what? I stopped. I stopped 2 inches into my hat and said Hell No. Not gonna do it.
This goes DOUBLE for cookies. I stopped eating “average” desserts. Sugar is bad for you, so why should I waste my precious sugar allotment on average cookies?
