What’s one mindset shift that helped you grow (in work or life)?

When I first started in marketing, I used to wait for the perfect moment.

The perfect design.

The perfect words.

The perfect timing.


I would hold back on launching campaigns, sending emails, even sharing my thoughts, because I felt things weren’t ready yet.


But here’s what I’ve learned:

>Perfection slows you down.

>Getting things out there, learning, and improving along the way—that’s what really helps you grow.


Since then, I’ve embraced this mindset:

Done is better than perfect.


What about you?

What’s one mindset shift that helped you move forward in work or life?

Let’s share and learn from each other! 💬

I would say that for me – it was the changing environment that helped me to grow.

It feels like many things depend on a strong network, and then, when you have the right people in the pocket, you can dothe impossible.

Launching soon!

My mindset has always been: nobody starts perfect, but with time and practice, we can become great.

Whether it’s cooking, writing, or playing video games, progress comes with consistency and patience.

Launching soon!

@eljo_prifti 100% agreed :)

After I started following 80/20 rule everything changed in my life.
Launching soon!

@jerryton yeah right, focusing on the few things that drive results always beats doing everything at once.

Don't look for the abstract meaning of life, connect with concrete beautiful scenes: the sunset on the road, a delicious dinner, the fragrance of flowers...:)

Launching soon!

  2. Step by Step

  3. Consistency

Launching soon!

To a degree yes! Not rushed, not quick, but well done....⚡️

Launching soon!

@light_silver Yeah, I feel you on that. It’s not about rushing things; it’s about building something solid that actually works. But sometimes we think too much after putting in our 100% in that case (done is better than perfect :)). Thanks for sharing your take; I appreciate your input approach.

'Slow down to speed up' - At times when I feel like I'm trying to do many things at once but not making any real progress, remind myself to slow down, pick one thing and just make it happen. I've found that it helps unblock me by putting me in a state of flow and i'm able to get back to the other things and power through them too.

Launching soon!

@ragsontherockssometimes it also happens to me :(

Learning to observe

Launching soon!

@malithmcrdev Love that. I think it's a cycle; once we learn to observe better, we start picking up things we didn’t even know we were missing. And that’s where real growth begins.
