Self-Improvement: Who needs PERFECT people? - Uma Venkataraman

Demanding perfection from yourself can be dangerous to your health.

Perfect people, managers or employees exist only in training films and textbooks. It is the struggle towards perfection that counts and your approach towards that should be step by step. There is no other way of achieving your objectives. Set realistic short-term goals and focus on them. It does not matter even if you fail as long as you give it your best shot and stay in the game. If you quit, there is no way of winning. The real winner is the one who stays in the game, learns to play well and knows that perfection is only a fantasy.

Watch a child learning to walk. He stumbles as he tries but he picks himself up and tries again and again till he achieves that final successful step.

Never fear the consequences of missing a shot or a step. Because when you fear failure, you limit your potential. Remember while deciding to do something, it is better to be almost right than totally wrong.

You can still be considered one of the best and a success if you give your best, even though you may not be perfect.
