Overcoming Perfectionism – Do It By Embracing My B- Philosophy
If you want to know the secret to overcoming perfectionism here is my simple B- strategy that will nip your perfectionist tendencies.
Let’s chat about overcoming perfectionism.
Here’s the very best advice I have to share with you if you want to know how to stop being a perfectionist.
I want to share with you a philosophy that has led to me creating so much in life.
Over the last few years:
I’ve written over 600 articles.
Published over 20 books.
Created over 40 digital courses.
OVERCOMING PERFECTIONISM
But there’s no way that this would have been possible if I sat there ahead of time thinking I needed to produce A+ results.
Setting that expectation for myself would have kept me stuck in the same place.
It would have made me feel too scared to even try.
Aiming for A+ work before you even start is the quickest way to procrastination.
Those perfectionist tendencies do not serve you in anyway.
OVERCOMING PERFECTIONISM
Instead I aim for B- work.
B- work is doable.
It doesn’t feel scary.
It is an easy enough goal for most of us to achieve.
It removes from us this expectation that what we have to produce must be perfect.
OVERCOMING PERFECTIONISM
When I decide to just aim for B- work it makes it so much easier for me to begin.
To take the first step.
And of course once my B- work was complete, it was easy enough for me to tweak it a little to bring it up to a B+ or A-.
But that has never been my goal.
I know that my articles and books and courses aren’t A+ PERFECT.
But they are done.
They are good enough and if I can later see a way to improve them I always will.
Done is always better than perfect my friend.
