This is so so beautiful and inspired me to be more courageous. I struggle with perfectionism a lot, and I find myself researching, planning, and ruminating before I do absolutely anything. The analogy of not being able to taste food with your eyes is so real. I must do in order to know. And I have to understand that the first times may be bad, unpleasant, or different than I expected. Because it is new! And that is okay.

I love this! I think one's desire to commitment before taking action comes from people falling in love with the idea of something whether it's a person, a hobby, or a career! but they aren't actually IN LOVE with the act of doing it. the only way to know is to do. i love the way your mind deconstructs these thoughts!!
