71: Messy Consistency: The Antidote to Perfectionist Paralysis


Listen Later

Tired of analyzing your way to nowhere? In this pep talk with Sam she shares about the concept of messy consistency aka how to break free from perfectionist paralysis and actually start building the life you want.

Sam explores:

* Why perfectionism traps you in endless planning without action

* How "analysis paralysis" keeps you stuck in the same place year after year

* The impossibility of analyzing your way to success (especially with algorithms)

* Why showing up imperfectly beats not showing up at all

* How to do weekly check-ins that honor your actual energy levels

* The difference between sprint mentality and marathon mindset

* Why small, consistent wins build confidence better than perfect execution

* How to show up for your life even when you don't have all the answers


The core message: Stop waiting for the perfect plan and start taking messy action. You can't predict your way to progress—you have to build it one imperfect step at a time.
