Have you ever heard of the saying, “Practice makes Perfect…” Let me tell you today that there is no such thing as PERFECTION.
If you have a business idea sitting in the wind because you are waiting till it’s just right, you may just miss your opportunity. Your next BIG thing may get swiped from underneath you from someone who came up with a similar or your same idea. Sometimes it is best for you to get on the ground running!!
I started an online boutique…Had a wonderful idea, came up with a name, and attacked it full force.
Did I make mistakes along the way? Of course, but have I learned a lot since I started in July 2012, Yes I
did! If I hadn’t given it a chance I would still be saying, “Man, I should start an online boutique.” Now I am doing awesome, and may even see a profit within my first year of business, which is typically unheard
of.
Here are some mantras to help change your view on perfection…
“I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business.”
― Michael J. Fox
“People are good or half good or a quarter good, and it changes all the time- but even on the best day nobody's perfect.”
― Colum McCann
“Perfection' is man's ultimate illusion. It simply doesn't exist in the universe.... If you are a perfectionist, you are guaranteed to be a loser in whatever you do.”
― David Burns
“Too late, I found you can't wait to become perfect, you got to go out and fall down and get up with verybody else.”
― Ray Bradbury
So if the fear of being imperfect is holding you back, I assure you that aiming for perfection may be your stumbling block, remove it so you can march toward your destiny!!!
Until next time Anticipate, Self-Assure, Persist, Inspire, Reach, Evolve HIGHER!
