Is Perfectionism Holding You Back?

Views: 2

Don’t beat yourself up.  You’re smart and very resourceful.  You ever see someone very successful and they seem either crazy or to have half the smarts you have?  I don’t mean that to sound mean.  It’s just how it is sometimes, right?  A big reason why someone like this can get to 6 to 7 figures in their business is that they simply stay out of their own way mainly because they don’t know any better.

See, we can often hold ourselves back because we are smart and mindful of ourselves and actions.  We tend to procrastinate if we are a perfectionist when it comes to getting things done.  The problem is things are almost never perfect just like life itself.

Perfectionism is the death and bane to many smart and savvy folks side businesses which could bring them the good life they’re after.  One thing that can help is to take some pressure off yourself.  Don’t view things you launch as failures if they may not work out as planned.  View things as experiments.  If an experiment fails, you did not fail right?  You just collect data from an experiment, learn something from it and go to the next step from there.  That’s all it takes to succeed.

Another thing that can help is to accept getting things to “Good enough”.  You can always go back and improve things later but you may not ever get a chance to because of all the success and results you’ll be getting from just taking massive imperfect action.  I hope this may be helpful.

Here’s a system that can help and perfectionism is not required. 

It only requires you to follow the steps and take imperfect action even if for only 30 minutes a day to start.
