What’s one mindset shift that helped you grow (in work or life)?
by•
When I first started in marketing, I used to wait for the perfect moment.
The perfect design.
The perfect words.
The perfect timing.
I would hold back on launching campaigns, sending emails, even sharing my thoughts, because I felt things weren’t ready yet.
But here’s what I’ve learned:
>Perfection slows you down.
>Getting things out there, learning, and improving along the way—that’s what really helps you grow.
Since then, I’ve embraced this mindset:
Done is better than perfect.
What about you?
What’s one mindset shift that helped you move forward in work or life?

I resonate with that a lot! Not so long ago, I found myself re-reading written emails or texts dozens of times before sending them (even the causal ones) when in reality, it probably wasn't really that serious. Perfectionism wastes a lot of time.
My fundamental mindset shift happened after experiencing what it's like to be a loser as a high school athlete. Instead of blaming others or circumstances, I learned to take responsibility of everything and little by little, I started winning. That experience of being a loser has stuck with me all my life. A loss is a valuable lesson.
