Short excerpt from a YouTube video titled "The enemy of Entrepreneurship" (Joe Polish). The speaker argues that perfectionism blocks entrepreneurship because it insists on guaranteed success before commitment; true entrepreneurial action requires committing without guarantees, which in turn requires courage.

Chapters

Perfectionism is absolutely the enemy of entrepreneurism, because perfectionism is the demand that you be guaranteed up front with success before you'll actually commit yourself to it. How many of you have done that? Where you absolutely demand that success be guaranteed to you before you'll actually commit to the project? Okay? And the world doesn't work that way. It needs you to actually commit before the success can actually be created. And what that requires is courage. Okay? So commitment requires courage.
