When to be perfectionist?

Antidote of procrastination

Instead of 1 hour workout, I just do 3 sets (<15 minutes)
50 squats is all you need (<2 minutes)

Instead of 1 hour video, I just record 5 minutes,
that's how I started my Youtube video,
it's been on my mind for years I kept procrastinate about,
I went against perfectionist mindset and recorded it,
the video sucks and it took 3 weeks just to edit the video,
but I have jumped over the walls I created for myself,
however, it's constant work, still have many walls to come

I just run with sneakers when I started,
I did bought running shoes,
but sandals are good enough for me.
