You have to be bad before you can be good. Seth Godin talked about this recently on his podcast, Akimbo. It resonated with me a few weeks back as I was I was preparing to present, something I don’t think I’m quite good at yet. It was refreshing to hear because it gave me permission to make a mistake. You realize that it’s okay to be bad, that this is part of the process and that you need to keep going until you are good (or at least less bad).
