The Perfectionism Trap

You think you’re being responsible. Strategic. High-performing.But what if the very thing you’re calling “productive”… is actually self-rejection in disguise?If you’ve ever replayed a decision 47 times, over-edited a post, or delayed a launch “until it’s perfect” — this episode will hit home. In this raw and transformational solo, George Bryant breaks down the insidious trap of perfectionism, how it’s stealing your peace, your profit, and your power — and exactly how to break free.What You’ll Learn in This Episode:The real identity of perfectionism (hint: it’s not about productivity)10 signs you’re stuck in the perfectionism trap (and may not know it)6 places perfectionism originates — and how to heal them10 powerful tools to rewire your brain for action, not paralysisWhy perfectionism costs you money, impact, relationships — and peaceHow to rebuild your progress muscle (and ditch the “perfect” prison) Key Takeaways:✔️Perfectionism is not a standard — it’s a fear.✔️Productivity isn’t about doing it all — it’s about doing what matters, imperfectly.✔️Awareness creates choice. Once you see where it started, you can rewrite it.✔️Progress beats perfect. Always.✔️Your worth isn’t in flawless execution — it’s in consistent, courageous action.✔️Perfectionism is a form of self-sabotage. And it’s costing you more than you realize.✔️Rewiring starts with honesty — and a little help from your support network. Timestamps & Highlights:[0:00] – Perfectionism is self-rejection in disguise[3:56] – The perfectionism trap (and why it’s so sneaky)[6:45] – 10 signs you’re stuck in perfectionism (micromanaging, overthinking, burnout & more)[21:38] – Where perfectionism really comes from (childhood, culture, trauma, and identity)[33:10] – The 10 tools to overcome it: how to shift into action, progress, and freedom[44:30] – Why peace comes from progress, not perfection[47:30] – Free journal prompts + invitation to share this episode Your Challenge This Week:Ready to break the perfectionism trap?Share this episode with a fellow entrepreneur or friend stuck in the cycleGet the free journal prompts in the show notesDM George on Instagram @itsgeorgebryant and say: “I’m done with perfectionism. Help me stay accountable.”Bonus: Free Journal PromptsJournaling Prompts to Break Free from Perfectionism1. Know Where It Came From - “You can’t heal what you won’t face.”What early experiences shaped how I define success or self-worth?Where in my childhood or past did I learn that being perfect was necessary for love, safety, or approval?2. Embrace Imperfection as Part of Growth - “Mistakes are not detours — they’re data.”When have I grown the most from something that didn’t go as planned?What would change in my business if I saw imperfection as progress?3. Set Realistic Standards - “Perfection is not the goal. Progress is.”Where am I holding myself to impossible or unsustainable expectations?What does ‘good enough to launch’ actually look like in this season?4.
