thanks for a brilliant post. i’m not ashamed to say that i suffer these feelings in my professional life as well as personal. i think one of the most powerful messages in your post comes in four simple words:

Let go of perfection

this applies to copywriting and life…

thanks again for the post and merry christmas!

That is one of my biggest problems/hindrances with writing. I have learned not to get that anxiety when starting a project. That anxiety that say “maybe I won’t be able to do it.”

I know that I can do it. Sometimes simply saying that to yourself does wonders for your outlook on a project.

Thanks for posting about this subject.

This is a big one for me. No matter how much experience I have, no matter how much success I have had in my offline business, I still sometimes feel inadequate. Now that I am venturing into writing and blogging it is 10 times worse! Thanks for the advice. I am really going to remember manawa. I think I might even post it on my wall. Now is the moment of Power! ~Kat~´s last blog post...How To Get Out of Debt - Debt Free Forever

[...] It takes some courage to step up and ask a blog owner to accept your guest post. Someone you admire is going to be looking at your work and approving it, after all. What if you’re not good enough? [...]

@Jeff: All of these fears are intertwined to a certain extent. Most of these fears feed off of other fears and perpetuate a nasty cycle. At some point you have to stop and make an effort to kill off one fear before the rest topple over like so many dominoes.

“You have the right to be your own judge.” — Something I must constantly fall back on when putting my work out there. Just because someone else doesn’t like something or would do it differently, doesn’t mean that what you have done is bad. It just means other people prefer different things. And as soon as we get over the feeling of inadequacy every time someone criticizes us, we are able to take their advice better (and more accurately) in order to improve ourselves and our work. Or we have the power to say no without feeling guilty (if circumstances allow it). This is similar to what I posted on “Fear of Rejection.” I guess it’s because they are two sides of the same coin.
