The Myth of Scarcity

Forget Perfection.  Asset-Based Thinking liberates you from the pointless need to strive for “perfection.”  You realize that pursuit of perfection is not an asset, it’s a liability.  For a change in the way you feel about yourself, see yourself as a work in progress… just like everyone else.  Each day, say to yourself that for today you are perfect the way you are.  Always competent, yet always learning, always growing.  WARNING:  A preoccupation with eliminating flaws invites self-absorption, where recognition and reconciliation with shortcomings promotes a healthy and powerful humility that liberates you to move forward.
