#51 It doesn't need to be perfect.


Listen Later

There is one thing holding a lot of people back.

-“Thank you for calling GIH where we instigate growth one call at a time where we utilize antiquated technology to deliver 3-minute leadership lessons, every day of the week. This is message #51 and I am Aaron Havens. 

Are you waiting to let us know your big idea or take a look at what you’re working on because it’s just not “ready”, or “perfect”?

What are you waiting for?

Is there something that needs to be said, done, sent, completed?

What is keeping you back from “putting a bow on it”?

If you have something brilliant to say today… don’t hold anything back for tomorrow! If you have something to give today, do it right away!

I don’t want me or you to take “that big idea”, or our contributions to make the world a better place, to the grave. 

Let’s throw all we have into living today.

Lots of great ideas have died because the inventor was too focused on perfect.

It may never be perfect!

Every day that goes by heightens the chance for that idea, that thing.. to die on the shelf or in the patent office book of records.

It doesn’t need to be perfect!

In “Ship It- a little pamphlet for people who can” by Seth Godin:

What does perfect look like?

What does good enough look like?

What does failure look like?

When was the last time you did something for the first time?

Put your idea into the world.  Put your skin in the game… then the world will have a new and exciting starting point to improve upon. 


Big take away: 

Where is fear holding you back.

Where is “making it perfect” stalling you out?


Thanks for calling in today.  Tune in tomorrow for a fresh new topic.

At the sounds of the beep let me know you’re in:
"It doesn't need to be perfect."
