The Monday m.e.l.t.: Its Okay to Be Imperfect

A few months ago I wrote you about The Fear of Effort or failing to take action towards something because we are afraid that if we do, and do not succeed, that we will fail. The reality is there is NO such thing as failure if YOU take action towards whatever it is you want to achieve. 
 
In working with a lot of type A personalities (including myself), I find that we often have a hard time doing things we aren't great at and can sometimes avoid doing those things because we are not perfect at them. 
 
The reality is there is NO such thing as perfect, in anything. If you want to do something, don't worry about getting 100% ready and prepared to do that thing, take imperfect action towards that thing...JUMP in the water, don't just dip your toe. 
The problem with dipping your toe in the water is that you are waiting for the perfect temperature, the right time. You will not have all the answers and things to best prepare you to do anything, until you DO.
 
This is not to say you should try to barbell clean n press 135 lbs as many total reps as you can, when you never did a clean n press before or something extreme like that. If you wanted to clean n press, you would take imperfect action by seeking out a coach to help you learn the movement correctly then try the movement with little or no weight. 
There is no perfect time. 
 
Take imperfect action TODAY and get better as you go.
