Have you ever felt like no matter how much you accomplish in a day, it's never enough? This episode is for you.

What if always striving for more was actually holding you back?

In today's episode, we explore a powerful concept that can change the way you approach your goals and dreams. Dan Sullivan once said, "“The way to measure your progress is backward against where you started, not against your ideal.”

Join us as we dive into the unexpected joy and benefits of focusing on progress, not perfection, and living in the gain. We'll explore how this shift in perspective can help you achieve more, find happiness, and ultimately lead to a more fulfilling life.
