PLAY IT WRONG

Added on December 19, 2019 by Jason Lam.

Getting good at life is like getting good at a new game. 

You’ve got to be very bad at it first.

In improv class, one of the first things we learn how to do is fail.

Every time we fail, we don’t drop our heads in shame and never try again.

Instead, we throw our hands up in the air and say, “Yay!”

Next time you need to tackle a new skill, assignment, or creative idea, be intentional about the fact that you will have to play it wrong first. 

Not because you suck. 

But because it’s all part of the game of life.

Now throw your hands in the air and say, “Yay!”
