Being Me Right Now

More From Helen Mirren

If you set your bar at 'amazing' it's awfully difficult to start. your first paragraph, sketch, formula, sample or concept isn't going to be amazing. your tenth one might not be either. confronted with the gap between your vision of perfect and the reality of what you've created, the easiest path is no path. shrug. admit defeat. hit delete. one more reason to follow someone else and wait for instructions. of course, the only path to amazing runs directly through not-yet-amazing. but not-yet-amazing is a great place to start, because that's where you are.

"all right then," said the savage defiantly, i'm claiming the right to be unhappy." "not to mention the right to grow old and ugly and impotent; the right to have syphilis and cancer; the right to have too little to eat, the right to be lousy; the right to live in constant apprehension of what may happen tomorrow; the right to catch typhoid; the right to be tortured by unspeakable pains of every kind." there was a long silence. "i claim them all," said the savage at last.

The only path to amazing runs directly through not-yet-amazing . but not-yet-amazing is a great place to start, because that's where you are. for now.
Running Path Where You Are
Sometimes, we're so focused on being consistent that we also lower the bar on amazing. after all, the thinking goes, if we can't be amazing all the time, better to reset the expectation to merely good. which robs us of the ability to (sometimes) be amazing.
Thinking Expectations Bars
If [sean] doesn't see me a few days or if i'm really, really busy, and i just sort of get a glimpse of him, or if i'm feeling depressed without him even seeing me, he sort of picks up on it. and he starts getting that way. so i can no longer afford to have artistic depressions. if i start wallowing in a depression, he'll start coming down with stuff, so i'm sort of obligated to keep up. and sometimes i can't, because something will make me depressed and sure as hell he'll get a cold or trap his finger in a door or something, and so now i have sort of more reason to stay healthy or bright.

In terms of you happiness, in terms of the matters that make you proud or sad, nothing-i repeat, nothing-will have so profound an effect on you as the way your children turn out. you will either rejoice and boast of their accomplishments or you will weep, head in hands, bereft and forlorn, if they become a disappointment or an embarrassment to you.
