Always Choose Progress Over Perfection

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development

The good news is that you do not have to be perfect to be successful. You do not have to get stuck because you want to be perfect. You can achieve greatness without being perfect.

If you want to make things happen, do not choose to be perfect. Instead, choose to make progress every day.

When it comes to growth, it is better to make progress every day, no matter how small, than to hide behind trying to be perfect.

In the words of Mary Poffenroth, ‘When you’re constantly chasing perfection, it’s not because you want to be best. It’s because you’re afraid of what will happen if you’re not.’

Do not live your life in fear. Instead, live your life in faith. Believe in yourself. Believe that you are more than enough, that nothing you cannot do, that you are well prepared to face anything that comes your way, and that you will alway choose progress over perfection. Start today!

As always, you are more, not less!

‘Isn’t it time for you to move on? Why are you choosing to remain in a power struggle with those who are no longer in authority over your life?‘- Dr Kevin Leman

Don’t wait. Take charge of your own life. Do not be afraid to take care of yourself. If you don’t, who do you think is going to do it for you?

‘Some people are impossible to please, and there’s nothing you can do about it. They see all of life through dark-colored glasses.’– Dr. Kevin Leman

If you want to enjoy your life, don’t please people. If you are comfortable with yourself, then why not please yourself? Why not give yourself some love? Why not make yourself?

‘Are you making unreasonable demands on yourself? Jacking up the high bar of life?’– Dr Kevin Leman

It is okay to ‘jack up the high bar of life.’ But do not jack it too high. If it is too high, you won’t be able to achieve your goals.

‘The only way to avoid failure is to sit in a corner and do nothing.’– Dr. Kevin Leman

If you do nothing, nothing will happen. The only thing that is guaranteed is failure. To make a difference, you must do something. You have the power to do it. Why not try?
