Reaching Perfection

If you are reading this I will admit I am very surprised,  most people would read the title of this article and probably think to themselves "damn, Marco is so cocky" or somehow paint me as this narcissistic douche who thinks highly of himself. Rather this post is about quite the opposite.

All my life I have heard the statement "no one is perfect" and I couldn't agree more. The problem with this is people take it as an excuse to continue living under the bar (barbell?... no?, okay let's move on). It's almost as if they just found a loophole that allows for them to be lazy. Reaching perfection is impossible, but that doesn't mean you can't try.

Some people reading this might think to themselves (or out loud, whichever floats your boat) "I don't need to be perfect to please other people, what do I care what other people think". It's not about other people, it's about trying to be the perfect you for you. It's about looking in the mirror and knowing the person standing before you won't settle for anything less than living up to your potential. We owe it, not to our friends, co-workers, neighbors, classmates, or even our parents, but to ourselves.

So no perfection can't be achieved, but there's no harm in trying. In fact nothing but good can come from it, nothing but progress...nothing but gainz.
