Focus on progress, not perfection from "summary" of Personality Isn't Permanent by Benjamin Hardy

Many people believe that in order to make significant changes in their lives, they need to strive for perfection. They think that unless they can achieve perfection, they will never be able to truly change or improve. This mindset is not only unrealistic but also detrimental to their progress. The truth is that progress is far more important than perfection. When you focus on progress, you are able to move forward and make improvements in a way that is sustainable and effective. By setting small, achievable goals and working towards them consistently, you can make significant changes over time. This approach allows you to see tangible results and stay motivated to continue on your path of growth and development. Perfection, on the other hand, is an elusive and unattainable goal. It sets you up for failure and disappointment because no one is capable of being perfect. When you strive for perfection, you are setting yourself up for frustration and self-doubt. This can lead you to give up on your goals altogether, as you feel like you will never be able to achieve the level of perfection you desire. By focusing on progress instead of perfection, you are able to embrace the process of growth and change. You can celebrate your small victories along the way and see how far you have come. This mindset shift allows you to be kinder to yourself and more forgiving of your mistakes. It enables you to keep moving forward, even when things get tough. In the end, progress is what truly matters. It is what helps you to transform your life and become the person you want to be. So, instead of getting caught up in the pursuit of perfection, focus on making progress every day. Celebrate your achievements, no matter how small, and keep pushing yourself to grow and improve. This is the key to lasting change and personal development.
