No perfection required in the recipe for growth.

No perfection required in the recipe for growth.

One trick that keeps people stuck is them believing they must be perfect.

We often feel we’re not good enough to start, We fear we don’t have what it takes, we wait for a better moment, a better opportunity, the perfect situation.

This way of thinking prevents growth rather than enhancing it. We need to accept that it’s ok to fail, it’s ok to be messy as we learn, as long as we’re improving.

Perfect is a mirage, we are not God, we can’t attain perfection, but we don’t need to. A seed doesn’t need perfect conditions to grow, it just needs the right balance.

The seed doesn’t always get perfect amounts of sunlight or rain, sometimes it gets lots, other times it doesn’t get enough, but as long as it can survive it can grow.

Waiting for a better time is a form of procrastination, we can always take action today, we don’t need to have it all figured out to take a step in the right direction.

The present moment is where we build our dreams, the here and now is where we begin. We must win the war within, defeat the doubt, and be free from the fear.

We don’t need to be miraculously transformed overnight. We just need to keep up the fight. The fight agains false beliefs, worry and anxiety, let go of limitations.

Because growth is a process, sometimes there will be good days, sometimes bad ones, what matters is that we keep going. What matters is that we do not give up.

We don’t need a map of the whole journey to take the first step. Let’s go on an adventure, our own heroes quest. We may not be perfect, but we are worthy.

We are worthy to go after whats been put in our heart. Our purpose, our calling. We have what it takes. See for yourself, you know the dreams you carry within.

So what can we do today, to become 1% better, the most basic step of action to be taken. The most simple task to move you one step forward? Let’s start there.

Let’s live in the now today. Tomorrow we’ll focus on the present moment as well. We don’t need all the answers, we just need to tap into the source in the present.

We can stop letting our minds constantly project into the future or dwell on the past, and slowly but surely a new peace will wash over us. We will be free inside.

So lets not worry about perfection, rather lets just enjoy where we’re at now. Let’s be grateful for this moment as we move into the next one. One step at a time.
