How good you can't dream of being trapped by a Perfectionist.

Anyone who is "absolutely willing to do it" is careful to be trapped until they do not reach their goal! 🚩 Many times we think that prudence is the advantage, but if it starts to make us "dare not act" or "work behind schedule," that may not be diligent, but it is the Perfectionist trap that is biting our dreams.

For our school age, the pressure of grades and the future often makes us want everything to come out 100% until we sometimes lose our good opportunities just by waiting for ourselves to be "more ready." Remember...An 80% job finish still has a chance to develop, but a perfect job in your head will never happen.

Stop pressuring yourself and try to do it while not ready yet, because true excellence is not measured at flawlessness, but measured by those who fall and rise to improve faster!

What about you...Is pickling any work because waiting for it to be "exactly"? The comments can be drained. 👇
