I was on a Zoom call this afteroon.
It was a call with some business buddies.
One of the guys wants to be famous on YouTube.
His plan:
- get the best camera, the best light, the best microphone
- spend hours writing a script
- read the script on camera
He showed us all his new and expensive equipment.
It looked very professional.
I’m sure his videos are going to be perfect.
And I’m sure they’re going to be…
Terribly Dull
(That’s what I told him!)
Why?
Because when you focus on perfection, there’s no room for your personality.
And people like people with personalities.
Your personality is your sense of humor.
Your moods.
Your opinions.
And yes, even your mistakes.
What about when you speak English?
Are you showing your personality when you’re worried about rules?
Probably not.
Personality is more important than perfect.
What do you think?
p.s. yes, I noticed, I wanted to read it.
p.p.s. and this is perfect, I realized that I am waiting for your letters, not only that I like them
Agree with Laima. Yesterday I was suprised: where is Vitamin V? What a joy today! Have a delightful evening.
I am agree with yoy.
Yesterday I was surprised too. I like your letters and I’m waiting for them(?). Personality is important but I want speak nicely with many words in my brain. Good evening!
I agree 100% that personality is more important than perfect.
I.think you’re right, a perfectionist is boring and a lak of creativity is his problem, although perfectionism it isn’t totally bad because it helps us to grow up. I heard this.business with reading scripts is trendy on You Tube many people are curious and interested in.
Hi Mr Vig
Yeah,
I agree with losing your personality, when you want to be perfect! Because then you respect all the rules (off the rules!!) -imposed by others, whether you like them or you are constrained / they are imposed on you. You actually answer to those who judge you…
I gave up on that…and I try not to take myself too seriously! And to discover myself as I am…in my essence! And this is how I feel my “liberation”!
Finally, last evening I also “searched” for Vitamin V. On the computer, on the laptop and on the phone. I thought that there was a problem with me “at the reception”! hahaha!👍👍
Maybe the perfection is his personality.. but I don’t like this kind of person .. I am on the other side 🙃
Hi Ryan, yes personality is more important than perfect. But I can understand to be perfect.
Yesterday I missed your letter too. I‘m glad to get it.
Hmm.. maybe sometimes being „perfect” is false personality covering „normal” personality, with weaknesses and other not perfect sides .. and conflicts. Showing ourself we sometimes feel volnurable and we need to be strong to manage with it, with being imperfect. Your Ryan course is according to me like being with „perfect” „parents”, sibling who can bear imperfect children, sisters, brothers acknowleding own imperfection .. Such my thought.
GREAT !

Yes, I understand this only now, that I wondered about yesterday’s e-mail…
I like your vitamins very much, thank you!
Personality, i.e. the totality of a person’s particular mental and spiritual characteristics and ways of behaving. This whole contributes to the uniqueness of an individual. It is simply impossible without the perfect knowledge of the language.
I did indeed! It’s part of my routine to read Vitamin V just before turning off my computer and going to bed. I looked for it, I couldn’t find it and I really wondered where it was. And now you have mentioned it in today’s message and I couldn’t avoid laughing. Thanks!
Yes and no. Because perfection is also someone’s personality. Sometimes a person attracts us precisely with his perfectionism, like Mister Poirot. If he is a perfectionist, maybe that’s exactly what he has to play on.
I totally agree with you. Personality is more important than perfect in all areas of my life, not only about learning and speaking English language.
Oh, this was a good reading! It´s like a successful therapy session with a psychotherapist. Thanks Ryan!
Your “mistake” with Vitamin – it made me little worry, but it´s ok… good thing it didn´t happen on friday night…
Perfect – everyone doesn´t have to be, but if they want let them try. And if they succeed – congratulations!
Personality – everyone has their own and it´s unique (even perfectionists). The older we get, the more we realize how different we are. World is wonderful!!!
Hi Ryan ! Perfection ???, such a thing does not exist ! .we all want to talk or do something perfectly, do we succeed???
I don’t believe in perfection,that would mean never making mistakes.
Our life is perfect???
What do you think ???
Personality is more important than perfection !!!
Yes ,l was worry ,and l think you stop to send “Viamin V”.
This is not ok for me ,because with “Vitamin V” l learn english better.
