PERFECTION IS A DISEASE - GOD'S LOVE IS THE CURE
Excellence is the path that takes me to my dreams, unless I stop at a roadblock called perfection.
I must embrace excellence and flee perfection. Excellence pays rich dividends and is always within my grasp.
Perfection is an unreasonable taskmaster who is impossible to satisfy. The wages of perfection are eternal frustration; no matter what I do, or how hard I try, it’s never good enough.
Perfection is a silver-tongued adversary pretending to be my friend while it steals my joy. If I wait around for everything to be perfect, I will miss out on all the good things of life.
Life can be excellent, but perfection is impossible. The formula for misery is to expect perfection in myself, my friends, my parents, my children, my spouse, my house, my car, my boat, and my job. Perfection doesn’t exist in any of these areas. Perfection isn’t necessary, and it’s a luxury I can’t afford.
I don’t worship at the altar of perfection as it only brings misery and disappointment. I don’t need to be perfect, and neither does my life. God loves and accepts me the way I am. God never demands perfection. If it’s good enough for God, it’s good enough for me.
