MINDSET - The Reason Why "Good Enough" Is Better Than PERFECT

Whilst there is nothing wrong with striving for the best, at least start with good enough .

Create videos that are good-enough. Create Facebook posts that are good-enough. Create websites, products, content that is good-enough.

Then optimise and improve.

I've learned that the following has helped me: A clearly defined and well documented

goal

.

Don't get me wrong, don't release rubbish products, rubbish content etc.. plan to make it as good as you can from day 1, but don't spend months thinking how to make something better when you haven't even made anything yet.

Ironically, I'd argue that actually imperfection is perfect. As the world around us is imperfect, so to provide an imperfect solution for an imperfect world is best fit. A perfect solution might never match an imperfect solution because both can be universes apart in compatibility.

when I overcame my 'perfectionist' traits - I saw my progress skyrocket as a result of it.

Ready, Fire, Aim

If the

goal

of the project is vague, the perfectionist must define the goal for his/her self...and then the goal will become "perfection". If the goal is defined and documented enough, then it can be established to not require perfection. Much easier for everyone involved.
