Is this an exercise in self-deprecation? Because, I suck at singing, and I would experience a tremendous amount of anxiety if I were to go to a pub and try singing karaoke for any kind of audience, but I know that I just show up, down 4 pints of beer as fast as I can and then do it, have a blast and move on with my life, doing it stone cold sober will scar me for life.
This is not a place where you take yourself seriously. Nobody expects Whitney Houston, just a random guy with good vibes.
All that said, the article references something you’re bad at, not something you dislike. It’s true they tend to overlap, but there are plenty of things I’m bad at that don’t give me anxiety (like drawing), and I think that’s the point in the article.
Being bad at these things and doing them anyway ("do it scared") has allowed me to enjoy so many more things.
