🚀 Perfection Keeps You Stuck—Progress Moves You Forward
If you’re waiting for the perfect moment, perfect conditions, or perfect execution—you’re not making progress, you’re making excuses.
💡 Perfection leads to hesitation. Progress leads to momentum.
✅ Perfection delays action—progress builds results.
✅ Perfection waits for the “right time”—progress creates the right time.
✅ Perfection fears mistakes—progress learns from them.
🔥 If you wait for perfect, you might wait forever. Start now—adjust as you go.
🔥 Why Perfection Stops You & Progress Propels You
📌 Example 1: Instagram started as a clunky app called Burbn—if they had waited for a perfect version, they wouldn’t have built a billion-dollar brand.
📌 Example 2: Thomas Edison didn’t create the lightbulb in one perfect attempt—he made 10,000 mistakes, each one bringing him closer to success.
📌 Example 3: Every bestselling author starts with a rough draft—because great work isn’t created in a single perfect moment, it’s built through progress.
🚀 You don’t need perfection to succeed. You need action, consistency, and a willingness to improve as you go.
