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!

You Are More Than Just Accepting Yourself

Your life is more than just accepting yourself. You are more than just doing what is enough.

It is enough to do what is enough. But you are more than enough. You are alive for a reason. And that reason is to live your more than enough, not just enough, life.

Because enough is just enough. Not more than enough. You need more than enough, especially when things are really tough.

Especially when you are alone. Especially when you are not with yourself.

You can’t get back up with just enough. But you can get back up with more than just enough life.

When you are creating more than enough to get by, when you are living more than enough life, you are adding value to your life. You are making your life more meaningful, not less meaningful.

To move from where you are now, right now, this moment, you need more than enough to get it done.

You will need MORE than enough love. More than enough fight. More than enough energy. More than enough work. More than enough you.

Because if you are not doing things a bit differently, the results are not going to change.

Enough will give you enough. More than enough will give you more than enough. Greatness will produce greatness.

So if you want more than just enough, you have got to put yourself first. Your self-love will come first, not last. Because without self-love, nothing is going to work.

To do that, you must stop disrespecting yourself. You must start accepting yourself as you really are. You must stop enduring your life.

Why is that? Because you are not here to endure your life. You are here to live your life.

If you are not already living your life, then what are you doing with it? When are you going to start living your life, your real life?

As always, you are more, not less!
