When Donny Osmond was dealing with crippling anxiety attacks before performing, his wife told him to “just be average”. I have embraced this idea for sub-par days & when I’m anxious about a presentation. Even at average, I know more about my presentation topic than anyone else in the room.
Thank you, Laura, that's what I'm doing today, so I appreciate your perspective. I am working a bit more slowly on proofreading some material since I'm not feeling at the top of my game. It took some extra time to clean up the tea I spilled on myself and my desk. I'm glad to be able to complete some needed work today. Also a good reminder that something beyond just maintenance is a win some days.

Thanks for the reminder!
Some days aiming for average is good!
Sometimes I can only manage a C- but I’m ok with that
