Progress not perfection.

This is one of my favorite slogans.  It reminds me that I don't have to be perfect, it's human to make mistakes, and yet I can look back upon my progress and feel good about that.  Love this program!

In so many ways and settings, this is a real gem...thanks Lyne and Deb!

I find this also very helpful in taking into account the actions and efforts of others; if I find myself judging the actions or efforts of others, this is a great slogan to lean on: I can humbly recall my struggles and missteps at times that I was truly giving it everything I had.

Effort and intent is not always apparent in outcomes, good to remember for myself and others
