Let Progress Handle Your Journey—Perfection Can’t Even Start It

🚀 Perfection Keeps You Stuck—Progress Moves You Forward
You can spend forever waiting for the perfect conditions, perfect skills, or perfect moment.
💡 But perfection never starts anything—progress does.
✅ Waiting for perfection leads to hesitation.
✅ Progress creates momentum, even when it’s messy.
✅ Done beats perfect every single time.
💡 What have you been postponing because it’s not ‘perfect’ yet?
🔥 Why Perfection Blocks Growth & Progress Builds It
📌 Example 1: Arianna Huffington was rejected 36 times before launching The Huffington Post—she let progress lead.
📌 Example 2: James Dyson created 5,127 failed prototypes before a working vacuum—perfection would have stopped him at #1.
📌 Example 3: Steven Spielberg was rejected from film school multiple times—but progress made him one of the greatest directors.
🚀 Perfection fears failure—progress learns from it.
