Perfection looks like high standards, but underneath it's usually the worry that if the work is judged and found wanting, so are you. That's why it hides so well. Nobody argues with someone who says they just want it to be good.
The writers who get better are the ones who let the work go out a little rough and then read what comes back. Feedback sharpens judgement faster than another private rewrite ever will. The refining comes later, once you know which parts are worth the effort.

Really like this one. Just so straight forward.
Thanks, Rishad. Perfection comes mostly from fear and limitation vs. curiosity to learn and be masterful at anything is far more generative/expansive.
