Trying to Be “Perfect” Is the One Thing Stopping You From Losing Weight—Here’s Why


Listen Later

The people who actually stick with their diets?

They’re not perfect.

They don’t have freakish discipline.

They don’t always follow their plan to the letter. 

And sometimes they screw up... just like everyone else.

But—

The difference is they don’t let it be the reason they stop.

Instead, they adjust. They keep going.

And the fact that they keep going is why they're successful.

But that’s easier said than done, isn't it?

Because if you’ve ever chased perfect, you know how this plays out.

One bad meal = Might as well start fresh Monday.

Miss a workout = Today’s a bust.

Anything less than perfect = Guess I failed.

And just like that, all or nothing wins.

So how do you actually stop obsessing over perfect and start focusing on what really matters?

Well, it’s not about pushing harder. And it’s not about being stricter. 

It’s about learning how to keep showing up, even when things turn into a mess.

Maybe that means dropping the idea that everything has to go exactly right.

Maybe it’s letting yourself do something instead of nothing.

And maybe it’s realizing that real progress is never neat, never linear (and was never supposed to be).

So, if you're thinking of hitting the reset button again, this might be exactly what you need.
