PERFECTION


It’s overrated.  It’s an excuse really.  Because if you’re busy trying to get something perfect, what you’re really doing is not getting anything done.  

Why is that?  Here’s the mashugana moment -- because there is no such thing as perfect.  Besides, even if there was, no one would notice because everyone is too busy trying to be ‘perfect’ themselves.

Here’s the thing.  If you’re trying to accomplish anything it’s better to get the thing done as best you can, and get it ‘shipped’ like Seth Godin says.  Forgive your imperfection but get the job done, meet the deadline and add another project to your portfolio.  It’s what moves you forward.  Perfection, is what keeps you stuck.
