String of Pearls

What it is

The String of Pearls represents your life as a continuous sequence of actions — each one a “pearl.” Some pearls are shiny, others are messy or ugly. But each one still matters because it moves you forward.

Why it matters

Perfectionism and fear often stop people from acting at all. But action is what creates momentum. The point is not to create perfect pearls. The point is to keep stringing them.

Every pearl is equal — even the flawed ones.

What to do

  • Focus on doing the next thing — however small.
  • Accept messy efforts as valuable.
  • Don’t judge individual actions — trust the string.

“All you have to do is put the next pearl on the string.”
