Moving Forward

Good Afternoon Donna - I like "progress not perfection".  Having accomplished something and moving in the right direction keeps us motivated.  It certainly does for me as well.

Donna I agree if we played just a little bit more, laughed a little harder all things would fall into place pefectly.  Enjoy your time at the party tomorrow!

Donna Foerster - Always moving forward keeps us motivated but the play time makes it all worthwhile. Enjoy your family time tomorrow!

I think we all feel like this at times.  That is a great phrase.  I will need to remember it.

Donna- what a good entry and inspiring post.  I love that phrase too- to make progress, not perfection.  I know that you've been moving forward to be here at ActiveRain and you've done well.  Enjoy your friend's party tomorrow. 

                                 thank you Donna Foerster 

Donna, 

This is exactly what you were on the way to achieving with your KW family.  A Life by Design and not by default.  You can still have all you want.  It's never too late.  What you focus on expands.  #floridatolbertteam

Its sad to me that we did not get this smart years ago!

Good morning Donna Foerster,

I'm sure you will have a fun time today at the party. The phrase "Progress ..Not Perfection" is a good one to live by. It's good to laugh ....Every day you spend without a smile is a lost day.

Good morning Donna. I hope you enjoy your party. Sounds like you desrve a break.

Donna,

What a wonderful post, and I am so glad that Kathy Streib chose it for this week's AHA moments.  A

One should pick up a project take it to finish line and move on to next one. Those who say they want to do this and that and get nothing started, they have low esteem by others.

Getting stuck looking for perfect in every step is a sure way to get nothing done.  I'm with you.  Keep moving forward.

Donna Foerster  What an inspiring post ..we have to appreciate every day

Donna Foerster - great inspiration from this quote. Though it's difficult at times, move on --- Forward!

Enjoy your party:) 

It is very important to balance your personal life and business. 

Thanks for sharing. 

Yes, the past is done and all we can focus on is the present and future.

I hope your party was wonderful!

Donna, I recently took a CRS class about working with buyers. We discussed the DISC profile. I suspect you're a HIGH C. I know because so is Tom. One of the problems that HIGH C's have is they want everything to be perfect. That perfection keeps them from moving forward.

They do have other wonderful attributes:

What are the general characteristics of the C DISC Styles?

The C DISC Styles are accurate, precise, detail-oriented, and conscientious. They think very analytically and systematically and make decisions carefully with plenty of research and information to back it up. The C has very high standards for both themselves and others. Because they focus on the details and see what many other styles do not, they tend to be good problem solvers and very creative people.

What do the C DISC Styles contribute to a team?

The C style brings perspective to groups and tend to be the "anchor of reality" in team thought. When something is proposed, it is the C who will think through every detail of how it works and the process. They will make realistic estimates and will voice the problems that they see with the plan or already existing system. The C is conscientious and even tempered. They will complete tasks they've committed to and will be very thorough. They take great pride in doing their work accurately and are excellent people to analyze, research, or test information.

I enjoyed reading our post . I am glad Kathy featured it in her weekly post.

As a recovering perfectionist I enjoyed the sentiment of your  post!  I live by my checklist and every morning review exactly what I'm going to get checked off.  Without my list, I'd be stuck in the quicksand of trying to control everything and have it all be perfect, making no progress whatsoever.  Hope you enjoyed your party!
