Focus on Improving, Not Perfecting

We all pursue our goals with one of two mind-sets: what I call the be-good approach

.Be Good Approach-Focuses on proving existing abilities, often leading to comparison with others and increased stress when expectations aren't met.e

.Get Better Approach- Emphasizes continuous improvement and learning, leading to self-comparison over time and reduced stress in the face of setbacks.h

Shifting from a "be-good" to a "get-better" mindset can foster resilience and sustained motivation.
