Aim for progress, not perfection from "summary" of Mini Habits by Stephen Guise
The key to success in any endeavor is progress. Perfection is an elusive and often unattainable goal that can lead to frustration and disappointment. By focusing on making progress, no matter how small, you set yourself up for success. Think of progress as a staircase leading to your ultimate goal. Each step you take, no matter how small, brings you closer to the top. If you only focus on taking big leaps, you may become overwhelmed and give up. But by taking small, consistent steps, you build momentum and create sustainable change. Mini habits are the perfect way to aim for progress. By setting small, achievable goals, you set yourself up for success. It's much easier to commit to doing one push-up a day than committing to an hour-long workout. And once you start, you often find yourself doing more than you originally planned. By focusing on progress, you free yourself from the pressure of perfection. You give yourself permission to make mistakes and learn from them. You understand that setbacks are a natural part of the process and that they can actually help you grow stronger. Remember, progress is not always linear. There will be ups and downs along the way, but as long as you keep moving forward, you are on the right path. Celebrate your small wins and use them as motivation to keep pushing forward. By aiming for progress, you are setting yourself up for long-term success and sustainable growth.
