consistency over perfection: iterate

consistency over perfection: iterate

to break down a mountain, you have to start with the first rock. 

perfectionism is not a good metric of success. nor is intelligence. hard work is because it's consistent

A small step is always better than no step at all.

instead of seeking the situation to be perfect and you trade to be perfect, just do it. you'll learn along the way

perfection is useless. long term results and lasting progress is not about consistently being great, rather, being great at being consistent

"Endurance is one of the most difficult disciplines, but it is to the one who endures that the final victory comes."
