Release yourself from the burden of striving for perfection.

The pursuit of perfection will only lead to paralysis or procrastination. IOW not getting anything done.

Instead, embrace the Japanese art of wabi-sabi, finding beauty in imperfections. This mindset will help you deliver early and often because it doesn’t have to be perfect, just good enough to work.

So, take those ideas, that message or positioning statement, those marketing materials or websites you have sitting on the shelf, and get it into the real world as soon as possible.

Then cherish the learning experience you’ll get from the feedback and data you collect and improve and evolve it to make it better every step of your journey.
