Done is better than perfect

"Done is better than perfect." 
Scott Allen

If you're stuck in the mode of inaction - 

Is it because you're afraid to take the first step?
Maybe overwhelmed with the magnitude of the whole thing?
You're afraid you can't complete it perfectly?
Not quite sure even where to start?

In my line of work we have a saying -
‘The enemy of good is perfect.’

The key to moving ahead is following through.
Taking baby steps will decrease your anxiety about
a big undertaking.
This applies to everything -
especially all those New Years resolutions that were made.
If you made a resolution, are you still taking action?

Maybe this quote can offer us permission to ‘just do it’,
even if we’re not quite perfect!
