Loreene Fabi

Have you ever planned something so so much that you actually ended up with nothing? If yes, then you and I have a looot of things in common! I am a planner. I love strategizing. I love analyzing and I love asking “What could go wrong?”. Until too much preparation killed me.

Hi there! My name is Loreene Fabi, a 35-year old scoliosis warrior with a 12-inch scar at my back due to spinal fusion. I’m a Sales Development and Marketing manager of a real estate company handling 6 subgroups. An entrepreneur, a financial advisor, a licensed broker, a speaker, a daughter, wife and a mother of a 2-year old. 

I used to be a perfectionist. If it’s not perfect, I won’t do it. I’d rather bury an idea than to launch something that’s half-baked. With so many ideas bursting in my head, coupled with a gazillion of tasks for work and at home, I ended up finishing/starting nothing  because the plans and strategies I made were not perfect. 

But I stepped back for a while analyzing what the heck is happening. Until I realized that while my goal is excellence, it was really the fear of failure that’s holding me back. I strive for perfection because I don’t want to fail. So instead of progress, there was stagnation, failure and death of bright ideas. 

And so I stopped putting too much pressure on myself. I realized that progress is more important than perfection. That’s why every article I share on this blog is created to share my learnings to inspire us to be better on our craft, our relationship to ourselves, others, and to the one up there.
