I try and learn something new everyday..It helps alot

*nods* She's been my role model in this regard - I'm challenging myself to try to post something here, if not everyday, then at least a lot more frequently than I've done. I've actually got the raw materials and ideas, I just need the discipline to go the next step on a regular basis.

I think one of the most challenging things if you're a perfectionist (my sweetie) or, like me, you were raised to value good grades - the product - more than the process - even I worked damn hard to get those grades - is to be able to sit back and ask "ok, so what can I learn from this?" And not just judge it "success/failure" and leave it at that. Just sometimes putting something down and walk away to get a better perspective.
