Focus On Growth, Not Perfection

‘When we focus on small, incremental improvements instead of perfection, the human spirit takes over, and all things become much more possible.‘- Dr. Jason Selk and Tom Bartow

Nothing is perfect. It is okay to be ‘perfectly imperfect.’ That is what you want to fight for, not perfection.

If you want to be perfect before you do anything, you are going to wait forever. Why? Because you can never achieve perfection. But you can grow while you are fighting for perfection.

Growth is possible, but perfection is not. If you focus on perfection, if you are striving for perfection, you are setting yourself up for failure.

Do not do that. It will hurt you. Whatever you want to do, do not wait to be perfect before you take the first step. If you do, you are going to wait forever. And forever never ends. It continues.

Love Yourself The Way You Want To Be Loved

The ultimate expression of love is loving another in the way they want to be loved.’- Gary John Bishop

Is life without love even possible? Living a life without love is like driving a car without gas. That is not possible. It is not possible because love is energy. Love is life.

Where there is no love, there can be no life, no movement, and no growth. Love is important. It is the reason we are here. And if you want to give it to other people, you must first give it to yourself. You must first love yourself the way you want to be loved.

Do not be scared. It is not a bad thing to love yourself first. If you think it is bad to love yourself first, then think about this question: ‘Can you give out what you do not have?’ Is it possible?

If you are true to yourself, the answer is no. And that is why you shouldn’t wait for others to love you. If you have the courage to love yourself the way you want to be loved, I think that is good enough. According to Gary John Bishop, ‘When someone say they don’t love you, it doesn’t have anything to do with you.’ It has everything to do with them. Why? Because you can’t give out what you do not have.
