“I'm not a perfectionist. I'm a 'let's get it done' person.”
What this quote means
This quote contrasts perfectionism with action. The perfectionist waits for everything to be perfect before acting, which can lead to procrastination. 'Let's get it done' prioritizes progress over perfection. It reminds us that the important thing is to finish things, even imperfectly, rather than being stuck.
