Progress NOT Perfection

How many people want the "perfect" life??? the house, the kids, the husband or wife, the fiances/income, the career, everything just the way we want it...If we are honest with ourselves we all do. We Want the "American Dream", right?!!?? We want life to be perfect because that's what has been implanted in us either through growing up in an imperfect family or through the pressures that society and social media has imposed on the way we view things. Perfection is definitely something that has been drilled into our subconscious mind. And when our lives aren't perfect we definitely feel it. We become depressed, anxious, and obsessed with changing our lives. Especially when we look on social media and see everyone else's "success". So we get into competition with people who we know nothing about or have never met before in our lives, just to fit the image of perfection. The illusion of perfection will drive us into an abyss of distractions. Where we are left no room to make mistakes or even grow. Progress allows you to learn from failure and use those opportunities for growth. On this journey in life, one is better off focusing on progress although it may seem imperfect because Perfection isn't always real. Progress is living in the realities of life and making the best of those truths. So don't let Perfection rob your joy! and Keep making Progress!!! P.S. Keep making progress!!! -QueenPoetLove
