Monday Momentum: Are You Waiting For Perfect?

On Mondays, I choose a quote that resonates with me and share it in hopes that it will serve as a dose of inspiration to start your work week, and nudge you to take steps to move your goals forward.

“Don’t wait for perfection to take action. Embrace progress and keep moving forward.” ~Unknown

I’ll start when…..

I need ……before I …..

I’m waiting for …..

Have you heard yourself say any of the above or add your own that you might be saying at the moment. Whether you are leading an organization, leading a team or leading your career, are you waiting for everything to be perfect before you (fill in the blank). This quote serves as a reminder to push through the doubts, the overwhelm, and embrace progress over perfection. Now, now, I know this can be easier said than done. I ask you to really consider, in what ways are you benefiting from waiting for “perfect conditions” before you take action? Sometimes, waiting for the “perfect condition” is a way to keep us playing things safe and staying in our own comfort zone, all the while we are saying that we want to see particular results.

So, this week, I encourage you to set a minimum goal instead of waiting for things to be perfect.

Writing this weekly post is my way of not waiting for “perfect” and taking steps to move my goals forward.

Will you join me in not waiting for “perfect?” Pick one thing that you’ve been holding back on and take a step on it today. What’s the next small step you will take to move your goal forward? How will you keep yourself accountable?

And if you are ready to take this message deeper, to apply it to your leadership, your career or your vision, I would love to help you chart the path forward. Reach out and book a discovery call and let’s chat.

Until next time….
