Win of the Week: Sharing your fails

What really stood out to me this week on Patreon is a creator who shared a series of “failed” pieces and how he fixed or learned from them. Instead of tossing them aside and being glad no one realized he’s not perfect (ha!), he shared pictures with his patrons and described the imperfections and what he did to improve the work.

But what about the slew of comments from patrons accusing him of not being perfect enough and laughing at his failed work? Hmm. *scrolls down* Nope, don’t see any of those. All I see are people thanking him for sharing his less-than-ideal pieces and asking questions about his process. Weird, huh?

Maybe people like knowing you’re just as ‘perfect’ as they are. 🙂
