Perfection starves success; progress feeds it daily.

Perfection Starves Success; Progress Feeds It Daily

🚀 Perfection Will Keep You Stuck—Progress Will Keep You Moving

Perfectionism feels like a high standard, but in reality? It’s a success killer.

💡 Perfection leads to overthinking, procrastination, and inaction—progress leads to momentum, learning, and results.

✅ Perfection makes you hesitate—progress helps you build confidence.
✅ Perfection delays launches—progress gets ideas into the world.
✅ Perfection waits for the "right time"—progress makes the most of now.

🔥 If you’re waiting for perfect, you’re starving your success. Choose progress instead.


🔥 Why Progress Always Wins Over Perfection

📌 Example 1: Google launched as a simple search engine—if they had waited for perfection, they’d still be tweaking instead of dominating.

📌 Example 2: Michael Jordan missed over 9,000 shots—but each attempt fed his growth and made him a legend.

📌 Example 3: The world’s top entrepreneurs, artists, and creators all release imperfect work—because starting is the only way to improve.

🚀 Perfectionism is fear disguised as high standards. Success belongs to those who move forward despite the imperfections.


💡 3 Ways to Choose Progress Over Perfection

1. Take Action Before You Feel Ready
✔ Perfect timing doesn’t exist—start now and adjust along the way.
✔ Every step forward teaches you something new.

2. Set "Good Enough" as Your New Standard
