I'm a perfectionist and I realized I've been making life too hard for myself. Choosing a low bar for success but keeping the ceiling high has felt like a much healthier approach.
The consultant's proverb: done is better than perfect
"Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly" I try to remind myself, with a history of postponing things, and not wanting to imperfectly do things. Rarely I've regretted doing to my current ability, but countless times leaving things undone.
Yeah. I have several quotes on my desktop which I've written to try to counteract my perfectionism, and one of them is
- Live tomorrow's plan, today.
And another one is
- Sign up now, cancel later.
