Hey there, and welcome to Wake Me Up.

I'm Tyler, your host, and I'm so thrilled that you're here.

We're back today for a motivational bit on this week's theme of letting go of perfectionism.

It's such an important topic because friends life isn't perfect. It was never meant to be. But we so

often place impossible standards on ourselves. When we try to be perfect, we take away the freedom to be our true selves.

On the other hand, when we accept that we're not perfect,

we're able to find a greater sense of fulfillment and enjoyment in life because we can

just be ourselves naturally and authentically without any pressure or judgment.

And most often, letting go of perfectionism

allows us to grow even farther than we otherwise would.

But before we dive in, just pause for one moment.

Take a deep breath in and fill all the way into your belly.

And then exhale in a long drawn out breath.

And as you do that, release any judgments or expectations you have about this moment, this day or your own life.

release that clenched jaw or that

release that clenched jaw or fist,

that desire you might have to just force things to happen the way you want them to.

Everything you've experienced in life up until now is exactly as it was meant to be.

It's brought you here, put you in a place where you can succeed, where you can do the things that you dream to do.

So relax, believe in yourself.
