Ep. 126: The Truth About B- work (A follow up to Ep. 116 on Perfectionism)


Listen Later

In today’s episode, I’m addressing a listener’s reaction to my discussion on B-minus work and why this concept is so misunderstood. If you’ve ever struggled with perfectionism or felt like you couldn’t put something out into the world unless it was flawless, this episode is for you.

We’ll explore why perfectionism is not the same as excellence, how it actually slows us down, and why allowing B-minus work can lead to better results, less stress, and more impact.

And of course, we’ll talk about when A+ work is necessary (because no one wants "B-minus" brakes on their car!) and how to strike the right balance between high standards and actually getting things done.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • The difference between excellence and perfectionism
  • How perfectionism slows down productivity, innovation, and decision-making
  • Why B-minus work leads to more success than perfectionism ever could
  • How to shift your mindset from overthinking to action
  • Practical strategies for applying B-minus work in business and life
