Progress Over Perfection
Being a person with a tendency to get stuck in my own mind I have asked (and re-asked!) the What? Why? and How? questions endlessly.
How much I enjoyed that is the topic of another discussion but last year I decided that I needed to move from contemplation and cogitation to activation and initiation.
I now believe that one of the major reasons for my procrastination (of course I didn’t see it as such) has been my perfectionism trait.
So the new mantras over my computer are “Don’t be perfect - be prolific!” and “Progress over Perfection”.
It’s given me a new sense of urgency and a mechanism for course correction and opening up to serendipity.
So far it seems to be working well.
