Embracing Imperfection 侘寂
This is the Japanese aesthetic concept of finding beauty in imperfection and transience. In the context of personal or athletic growth, Wabi-Sabi teaches that flaws and setbacks are part of the journey and can be embraced rather than resisted.
Self-1 is the Ego Mind, constantly thinking, analyzing, and giving commands. Self-2 is the Body, the part of you that actually performs. Self-1 is the Teller, while Self-2 is the Doer.
As we step into our performance arena—whether it's sports, public speaking, or any activity—Self-1 tends to chatter incessantly:
“Do more. Try harder. You’re not doing it right. You don’t belong here. You’re a fraud…” and on and on it goes.
The problem is, all this internal noise disrupts Self-2, the part of you that knows how to perform naturally. This constant interference prevents your body from doing what it already knows how to do.
To overcome this, it’s important to embrace imperfections openly and treat mistakes as learning opportunities. By silencing Self-1’s critical voice and trusting Self-2, you allow yourself to perform with freedom and clarity, fully present in the moment.
