"There is a difference between striving for excellence and striving for perfection. The first is attainable, gratifying, and healthy. The second is unattainable, frustrating, and neurotic. It is also a terrible waste of time." - Edwin Bliss
Omg, I really needed this. I felt held hostage by my thoughts of perfection.
Thank you for your time to these videos. I'm opening a buisness and I've been dragging my feet because I want perfection
From action comes clarity
From clarity comes focus
From focus comes excellence
Clarity comes from momentum.
I literally have a *Sticky Note* right in front of me that says " *Just create, don't be perfect* "
So I agree 100% , thanks for the awesome video !
Love it!
Perfectionism is tricky. Sometimes it hides behind “laziness”. Sometimes it hides behind “high standards” and overachievement. Sometimes it HELPS us. Often it doesn’t. The trickiest part is when it DOES keep us busy in “action” so we feel like we’re making progress but that doesn’t actually take us toward COMPLETION.
Imperfect action will always be greater then no action 🔥
*_You can have all the knowledge in the world,_* but if you don't apply that knowledge then it is useless
Thank you. It is a video I NEEDED to hear.
As a perfectionnist, I find myself stuck because what I do is not up to my (impossible to meet) standarts. Because of that, I get afraid, I panic, I begin to hate myself and what I created. Because of that, I refuse to simply try.
Things will not change overnight. But now, thanks to you, I have a video to look at the next time I search for excuses to flee what I want or have to do.
A daily mantra of mine: *”an 89.5 is still an A”*
This video provided me so much value and is exactly what I needed to hear 🙌 as a perfectionist who is beginning a blog and TH-cam channel, it’s important to just do your best and keep going. The important thing is to just be happy with your work, and remember that sometimes good enough is good enough.
"Just do it whatever it is" sometimes difficult but it seems to be the most practical good advise.
Also: Failure is part of progress. "The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried."
🔸The price of action is the pain of imperfection
🔸Even a movement backward is a movement forward
Valuable wisdom 💛
Edit: your ideas are having a positive impact over people across the world. So never stop sharing them with us. 💙
This is so true every little thing counts! Instead of saying what you want to do or whining JUST DO IT! I kept saying I wanted to leave my toxic family and become successful. Nothing changed until I actually left went to a homeless shelter and got my own apartment now I'm omw to success. I am living proof of stop talking stop wishing stop whining bc no one is gonna save you you have to just do it!
If you wait to feel like it, you will never do it. Feelings follow action. Once you do something, you will probably feel good about it and about yourself. There is no such thing as perfection. Even the most beautiful painting or music can always be made better. Just ask the artists themselves. They are their harshest critics. Movie directors always come out with a "director's cut" and even then, they think it could have been better. But they didn't wait for it to be perfect (they'd still be waiting) they just did the best they could at the moment. That's all anyone can do. If you are a perfectionist, cognitive-behavior therapy can be very effective.
Well said
You have to DO! Sitting back and waiting on things to be perfect is just a stall tactic. This is what held me back from starting a TH-cam channel for so long. Then, I just decided to start at the beginning of this year. My channel isn't perfect, but I am learning a lot, and the channel has been growing. Just get out and DO IT! 👍
*Thanks for sharing!*
I have this so often when I want to learn something new... Instead of just starting I am waiting for the ,,perfect time" that is usually never coming🤦🏻♂️
"Don't wait, time will never be just right" -Napoleon Hill
This also reminds me of the saying "Time in the market beats timing the market." Just starting right now is much better, usually, than trying to find the perfect moment to start something, like approaching someone.
I am guilty of being a perfectionist. I always plan and always wanted to be in control. Thank you for this. “It is not your thoughts. It is your actions.”
I suffer a lot from this as I wanna learn web design but I always tell myself that I need to look for templates/guides/tips to make the perfect design that i forgot to start at all
Brother you helped me get over my fear of being in front of a camera, and i have started my youtube channel! Thanks you are my hero!
Taking control of your life is the *KEY* to happiness and success. We all start
somewhere, whether that be at the bottom or with a little help. Ultimately your
potential is determined by your habits, which will *DEFINE* Who you are and
what mark you leave on earth.
"The price of action is the pain of imperfection." This is well worded.
“The price of action is the pain of imperfection, our own imperfection” woah
This video is beautiful. It captures the perfectly what I have been suffering from my whole life.
I am going to watch this video daily
I needed to see and listen to this! Thanks, you got a subscriber!

I like this video because you only have one call to action. Just do it.
I needed to hear and watch this today. Thank you so much!
I’m so grateful for this channel...
This video is perfection in 3 and a half minutes❤
I definitely still suffer from perferctionism. As Bruce Lee once said, "Willing is not enough, we must do!"
Just here to day thank you for doing what you do 🙏🏼
You can be excellent, and that is better than being perfect 🌈

Do the thing and you will have the power
so true. perfection can lead to failure

Action is always better

It is always better to get something made and done over having something always being tweaked but never released.

“The price of action is the pain of imperfection.”
Waiting for perfection or perfect timing is to wait for a lifetime. Just do it.
Just getting it out of my head and into actual action...."Just start it...."
I’ve been trying to write the same novel for the past four years. I don’t ever get past the first ten pages before I delet everything and start again because I’m always dissatisfied with the result.
Thank you :)
I make stuff.really nice stuff.i look at it and all I see is the flaws but all others see is perfection.
Our world isn’t perfect.
Our work won’t be perfect.
