I spent several hours on my About page and realized I was going in circles. I asked AI what to refine, followed the suggestion, and immediately knew it was wrong. I deleted it and returned to the original. I checked the time and felt frustration rise.
“I’ve made no progress,” I thought.
But that wasn’t quite true. I ended up where I started, yes—but I found one voice I don’t like, and confirmed another that I do. That matters.
I had a similar experience when I was learning to juggle. Juggling felt good, but only after a lot of fumbling. And while it felt good to be good, I never got better without more fumbles. The fumbles were part of the process, just as real as the moments of success.
If I don’t get comfortable with the fumbling, I’ll never be any good.
