Stop Trying to be Perfect, Just hit the ball!

“So please stop feeling sorry for yourself, and stop telling me he’s too good, and for the love of God, stop trying to be perfect! Just see the ball. Hit the ball”. One of my favorite quotes form Andrew Agassi’s book Open, a book that parallels both the mental and physical game of tennis with life.

I’ve been hesitating to start a blog because I have a vision but am not quite sure of all the details to get there. I have been painstakingly trying to figure them out over the last months before moving forward with this blog. However, I was rereading Andre’s book last night and the above quote really resonated with me. The blog doesn’t have to be perfect from day one. Just take steps and move it forward, start hitting the ball. Just like taking control and understanding your personal finances. You don’t have to be an expert, but just starting thinking about the topic and taking baby steps.

With that, here is my first blog and the beginning of Fluent in Finances.
