There’s no room for perfectionism on this journey. A perfectionist mindset says, “if I don’t have the perfect schedule/plan/knowledge,” I might as well not even try. This is a defeatist way of thinking that sets you up to fail before you even begin.
Instead, we hope you’ll start where you are with what you have. There will always be someone who is more advanced or more knowledgeable than you. Learn from their mistakes and ask for advice when you can but recognize that you’ll learn your own lessons along the way. You have enough to get started today. Be gentle with yourself and make it as easy as possible to get started. You don’t need the perfect 3-month plan. You just need a plan for today.
You are exactly where you need to be to achieve your goals. It all starts with believing you can.
