About this episode
In this episode we talk about the paralyzation of perfection. Perfection paralysis: It’s the immobilizing fear of failing and something us perfectionists know well. It can wreck our psyche and prevent us from forward movement because we’re so scared the results won’t wow that we’re unable to even begin. 1. Prioritize your energy. In the throes of perfection paralysis, we often lack perspective. Take a global look at your list—and your life. What matters most? Make it perfect. For the rest, let DONE be good enough. Separate your ‘task’ to MUST do, NEED to do, and WANT to do. 2. Let just one thing be good enough. Problem is, for perfectionists, letting "done" be "good enough" is tough. Yes, you understand that perfection is an impossible standard, but that usually doesn’t stop you from seeking it. Here’s our challenge: Today, can you press pause on that unwinnable game and let just one thing be less than perfect? Perhaps it means grabbing a salad for dinner instead of making that organic meal you had planned. (Your kids will survive. Promise.) Or it could mean hitting your bed tonight before the house is tidied. (You’re probably the only one who will even notice.) What one thing in your life can be good enough today? 3. Take the next best step. We often get overwhelmed with what am I going to cook/meal planning, grocery shopping, then having to cook everything that we don’t do anything… some people order groceries but get overwhelmed with cooking so they let it all go to waste and order out. 4. Don’t give yourself a start date or an end date. JUST START. Imperfect action is better than no action. When you take the pressure off of the outcome or an end date, you start to notice it is easier to adhere. This has to become your new normal.
