Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Oftentimes, we push ourselves at breakneck speed—racing to check boxes, chasing the next big win, believing that if we just move faster, work harder, and try more, success will finally land in our lap. But as John De Paola said, “Slow down, and everything you are chasing will come around and catch you.” In a world obsessed with hustle, this is not a call for complacency. It’s an invitation to step off the relentless carousel and rediscover the power of intentional living; live fully alive! Too many of us tie ourselves to the chains of past failures, letting every missed shot dictate...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Life doesn’t hand out guarantees. No matter how much you want a smooth ride or a sure win, it simply doesn’t work that way. Success, growth, and reaching your goals come from one thing above all else—intention. How you think, decide, and act every single day shapes whether you make it across the finish line.

3933 How Grief Affects Your Mindset show art 3933 How Grief Affects Your Mindset

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Grief isn’t just about losing a loved one. It’s a full-body, mind-consuming response to any meaningful loss: a job, a home, a relationship, a dream gone sideways. If you don’t understand how grief rewires your mindset, it can trap you in a mental box where all you see is what’s broken—and how far you are from climbing out of that dark hole. When you understand how grief affects your mindset, you get why you're paralyzed, stuck replaying the what, why, and how over and over, missing the possibility of what’s next. So let’s get real: grief is brutal, disorienting, and...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Walking in step with God is never a passive journey, especially when the world around you seems determined to pull you off course. Jealousy, deceit, and manipulation are real weapons some wield to fracture your spirit and cloud your vision. When hearts turn bitter and minds play cruel games, it’s easy to get trapped inside a warped reality that feels impossible to escape. So how do you hold your ground in these moments?

The new year brings that electric buzz of new beginnings and fresh possibilities.

3930 Intentional Parenting that Moves Mountains show art 3930 Intentional Parenting that Moves Mountains

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Every new year brings a fresh chance to hit the reset button — including how you show up as a parent. But let's be real: parenting is hard, exhausting, and often thankless. If you coast through it, thinking your kids will "figure it out," you’re setting everyone up for frustration and chaos. Kids need more than just food and shelter; they need consistent guidance, love, and boundaries; it's intentional parenting that moves mountains. Because when you slack off, what you get is exactly what you put in — kids who push limits, test boundaries, and fill the void left by absent parenting....

It’s a day wrapped in excitement but tinged with uncertainty. The unknowns can flip the script, spin your stomach, and test your courage. But here’s the beautiful, unshakable truth: The best is yet to come. You might hear this phrase a ton.

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Every New Year arrives heavy with promises! However, let’s be honest, you've gotta fair share of frustration, too. For millions, those well-meaning resolutions quickly unravel, leaving behind guilt and the familiar cycle of “I failed again.” But the harsh truth is that pushing yourself to “fix” every flaw with iron willpower only sets up a battle you can’t win long-term. So what if forward progress requires forgiveness in your healthy living? Well-being doesn’t emerge from beating yourself into a different person. Yet all too often, that’s exactly the approach New Year’s...

You're probably all too familiar with the grinding season—the one where your to-do list feels like Mount Everest, your energy dips, and then the holidays roll in like a relentless tide.

When you're constantly seeking perfection, the pursuit of flawlessness can be exhausting. The impossible standards and endlessly tweaking your work and goals become a life of ideals. Shift your perspective; done is better than perfect.

The perfect day. The perfect weather. The perfect marriage. The perfect house. The perfect bank account. The perfect kids. The perfect career. The perfect life!

But what if we shifted our perspective and embraced the beauty of imperfection? What if we let go of the need for everything to be perfect and instead focused on simply getting things done?

"Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence." - Vince Lombardi

We live in a culture that often equates success with flawless execution. However, the reality is that perfection is an illusion – an unattainable goal that can leave us feeling frustrated and overwhelmed. In our quest for perfection, we may lose sight of the joy of creation and the satisfaction of completion.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Create your now!

"Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it." - Salvador Dali

As we navigate the ups and downs of life, it's important to remember that perfection is not the ultimate goal. Instead, focusing on progress, growth, and perseverance can lead to greater fulfillment and satisfaction. By embracing the mantra "done is better than perfect," we can free ourselves from the shackles of perfectionism and allow ourselves to simply do our best in the moment.

"Progress, not perfection." - Unknown

That's what we're headed for. Are you?

Life is a journey filled with twists and turns, successes and failures. Rather than fixating on achieving perfection, choose to celebrate your accomplishments, no matter how small. Each step forward, no matter how imperfect, brings you closer to your goals and dreams.

Done is better than perfect. Create your now!

Remember, the creative process is inherently messy. "Art is never finished, only abandoned," said Leonardo da Vinci. This notion can free you from the prison of perfection. Accepting that there will always be a few rough edges allows you to release your work into the world, where its value transcends its imperfections. 

As Kristianne Wargo once said, "Embrace the journey, celebrate the progress, and remember that done is better than perfect."

So, the next time you find yourself hesitating, paralyzed by the fear of imperfection, remember that getting things done – even if they're not flawless – is an achievement in itself. Embrace the process, trust in your abilities, and take pride in what you have accomplished. Because in the end, done is better than perfect.

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
