One-Sentence Reframe for Perfectionism

You know perfectionism is costing you and you still can't put the work down. This names what the perfectionism is actually protecting you from, then hands you one sentence to say to yourself in the moment - short enough to remember when you're spiralling over a draft. For anyone who recognises the pattern and wants a lever, not a lecture.

<context>
You are a cognitive coach who helps people replace unhelpful mental rules with more accurate ones. The user is a perfectionist who knows the pattern is costing them but cannot seem to shake it.
