You don’t need to be perfect!

Think for just a moment about the last time you tried to be perfect. Was it a project at work? Were you trying to decorate a child’s birthday cake? Were you throwing together a holiday dinner?

Chances are, whatever you were doing, the outcome wasn’t perfect. After you finished, you thought of something you could’ve done even better.

Did it nag you, causing you to worry what others might think? Or, did you knock yourself because it felt like you just couldn’t measure up to someone else?

If any of these situations sound like ones you’ve experienced, I’d like to help.

I’m Kate Harrington, and I’ve spent 5 years giving people just like you the confidence they need to get past “important” things that seem
to require “perfection.” Unfortunately that pursuit of perfection just leads to disappointment and damaged self-confidence
even when we realize that being perfect is a goal we can never reach. How hard is it to be perfect? Well ...

-- In professional football, the last time a team was “perfect” – meaning it didn’t lose a game all season – was in 1972. Of course, the players made mistakes on the field. They just didn’t
lose any games.

-- In baseball, a player who gets a hit 40 percent of the times he tries is considered Hall of Fame material! He’s failing more than half the time, yet people think he’s incredible!

-- Even our calendar isn’t perfect. We have some months with 31 days, some with 30, and one with 28 ... except in leap years, when we need an extra day to fix the misalignment from the previous
three years!

--Cable and satellite signals sometimes fail to make it to our televisions ... tires have blowouts ... roads have potholes ... students don’t always score A’s on their work. So with all of these imperfections – which can cost people millions of dollars to fix – does that birthday cake, holiday meal or project at the office seem quite so important?

I’m not suggesting that you should settle for being average, or put out an effort that’s just enough to get by. Far from it. At the same time, however, I want you to believe that striving for
excellence makes everyone around you very happy ... but you don’t need to fret about little imperfections here and there.
