I keep finding myself struggling with the same problem, which is that I find it difficult to start something if I’m not sure I can finish it

maybe it sounds like a #humblebrag but it totally isn’t, it’s a massive impediment to getting better at stuff by starting out not being so good at it, or to accomplishing things that I can’t confidently polish off in an evening

so, yeah, with this refresh of my site, and this blog, I’m trying to just do the next bit, whatever it is, and accept that as progress even if it feels imperfect. I don’t have to have suddenly launched a next-generation, kickass version of this in the handful of weeks since cohost’s demise was telegraphed, I have done enough, and I will continue to do enough

relatedly, this post lives in the cohost post template not because it was posted to cohost, sadly that is no longer an option, but because it’s the only post style the site currently has other than the one for the art gallery

and that’s okay, because I can write here, and you can read it, and that is enough. I just have to keep being okay with taking the next step
