In this episode I discuss a commonly misunderstood truth about mastery: Mastery isn't achieved by setting one's target on perfection, it's achieved by allowing yourself to suck. Counterintuitive? You bet. But the science has my back. Studies show that those who have both the courage and willingness to increase output knowing their product isn't perfect maintain a significant advantage. Each rep allows a learning experience and, while sometimes not identifiable in the moment, ultimately propels the creator to a new level of excellence. Perfection is a crutch. It inhibits the growth that execution encourages. So, whatever your goal, start "shooting on net." There is no perfect shot...but the more you shoot, the better, more skilled you'll become...not to mention, the better the odds you'll have of putting points on the board.
