I recently completed the Presidential Leadership Scholars program, and we had an question and answer session with former President George W Bush. One of my classmates asked him about his painting hobby and if he was afraid of being bad or of critics. His reply will always stick with me. He said, “you can’t be afraid to try new things. If id expected perfection from the start, I would never have started. To learn requires making mistakes. I paint because I love it - and I don’t care what anybody else thinks.”
