It doesn't need to be perfect
I waited WAY TOO LONG to launch my business. Here's what I wish I'd have done instead:
I've learned to embrace the 'good enough' mindset.
To be creative, you need to avoid perfectionism at all costs.
Perfectionism is a trap. It's the enemy of progress, especially in a startup.
Here's the thing: Perfect is the enemy of done. And in the startup world, done is what counts.
→ Launch that MVP.
→ Write that imperfect blog post.
→ Make that slightly awkward video.
Iteration beats perfection every time.
Put something out there, get feedback, improve. Repeat.
Remember, your customers/clients don't need perfect. They need solutions, even if they're a bit rough around the edges.
So, let go of that need for perfection. Your creativity (and your business) literally need it.
