Progress Over Perfection
Waypoint Message
What if the secret to feeling better wasn't about being perfect, but about taking one small step forward? Progress over perfection means celebrating every tiny improvement, learning from mistakes, and understanding that growth happens in small moments. When you focus on moving forward instead of being flawless, you free yourself from the pressure that keeps you stuck. Every attempt counts. Every effort matters. Your journey doesn't need to look perfect to be meaningful. The magic happens when you show up, try again, and trust that small steps lead to big changes over time.
Success Strategies
1. One Next Step
Ask: “What’s one small thing I can do today to move forward?” Just one is enough.
2. Name the Lie
When you hear “I should’ve figured this out already,” pause and reframe it: “I’m still learning. That’s okay.”
3. Celebrate Micro-Wins
At the end of the day, list one thing, however tiny, you’re proud of doing.
