Wife: "Hey honey, the brakes seem to be leaking on my car." Husband: "We'll fix that later." (BAD ANSWER)
Wife: "Hey honey, how's the new website coming along?" Husband: "It's up and live! It may not be perfect, but we'll fix that later." (GOOD ANSWER)
Wife: "Hey honey, the sewer is backing up and the toilet is overflowing all over the master bathroom floor." Husband: "We'll fix that later." (BAD ANSWER)
Wife: "Hey honey, have you started with that electronic newsletter you were talking about?" Husband: "I did! The first issue went out yesterday. It's no Pulitzer Prize candidate, but we'll fix that later." (GOOD ANSWER)
Wife: "Hey honey, the dog just 'blew chunks' all over the pile of freshly folded laundry." Husband: "We'll fix that later." (BAD ANSWER)
Wife: "Hey honey, did you ever finish the ebook you had hoped to write?" Husband: "Ya baby!... and I've sold 4 copies from my Google AdWords traffic just today." (GOOD ANSWER)
"We'll fix that later." Incorporate this short little, very powerful sentence into your vocabulary today. These are not swear words. It's a deadly trap to get caught in the mindset that everything needs to be perfect before you ever announce anything to the world.
Look around the internet... ~ How many ugly websites do you see? ~ How many cheesy ebooks have you downloaded? ~ How many glitchy software applications do you use every day?
Perfection is an illusion. It'll never happen. Don't let the pursuit of perfection become an ideal that results in inaction.
Jim Rohn tells this story...
A man was visiting a neighbor's new home site. The neighbor had been collecting building materials on his bare vacant lot for years now. He'd amassed an incredible collection of lumber, windows, plumbing and lighting fixtures, doors, concrete block, shingles, siding, drywall and much more. Everything was stacked in mountainous piles around the barren dirt lot.
The man said to his neighbor, "It looks like you're going to have quite a house here."
The neighbor replied, "Just wait till you see the rest of the stuff I've got coming."
The moral of the story is stop collecting "stuff" and start building something. Do it now. Forward motion, even just a little, will have profound effects on what you see in the days ahead.
