The fastest way to break the cycle of perfectionism and become a fearless mother is to give up the idea of doing it perfectly - indeed to embrace uncertainty and imperfection.

More quotes by Arianna Huffington
We take better care of our smartphone than ourselves. We know when the battery is depleted and recharge it
Arianna Huffington
So great becomes the fear of losing what we have that many of us rush back to hide under the temporary shelter of convention rather than follow the path of self-discovery wherever it might lead. Given adequate time and sufficient fear, we may hide so long that we hardly notice we're slowly suffocating.
Arianna Huffington
Life is shaped from the inside out.
Arianna Huffington
For a hot-shot CEO taking over a troubled company, mass firings are the ultimate quick fix, the accounting equivalent of crack: cheap, easy to score, instantly gratifying, and highly addictive.

having too much is never enough.
Arianna Huffington
I don't like the idea of [having] a thick skin. I think we [should] be more childlike.

Remind yourself: you are not your thoughts or feelings
Arianna Huffington
All around the country, individuals are choosing to redefine their lives and the pursuit of happiness in ways much closer to the original notion put forth by our Founding Fathers. Their notion of the pursuit of happiness wasn't just about acquiring money and power, but about doing your part to add to the civic happiness of the community.
Arianna Huffington
We all have within us a centered place of wisdom, harmony, and balance. Whether or not we believe in the existence of the soul, we've all experienced times in which we're fully connected with ourselves.
Arianna Huffington
Creating the culture of burnout is opposite to creating a culture of sustainable creativity. This is something that needs to be taught in business schools. This mentality needs to be introduced as a leadership and performance-enhancing tool.
Arianna Huffington
In life, the things that go wrong are often the very things that lead to other things going right.
Arianna Huffington
If we don't know ourselves, our essence, where our true power comes from, we will believe our power comes from collecting victories, trophies, money, or recognition. And these are all fine, but it's not ultimately what life is about. When we think it is, we really waste our greatest possibilities.
Arianna Huffington
Failure is a stepping stone to success.
Arianna Huffington
I've always been progressive on social issues: pro-choice, pro-gun control, and pro-gay rights - even when I was a Republican. The big difference is that I once believed the private sector would address America's social problems. But then I saw firsthand that this wasn't going to happen.
Arianna Huffington
There is a purpose to our lives, even if it is sometimes hidden from us, and even if the biggest turning points and heartbreaks only make sense as we look back, rather than as we are experiencing them. So we might as well live life as if - as the poet Rumi put it - everything is rigged in our favor.

HuffPost serves as a starter page for news consumers, a place to find, and be directed to, the best content available on the Web. We consistently link out directly to other sites - often from our top-of-the-page headline.

An indispensable anthology of hope and inspiration. Put away your Prozac, and pick up The Impossible Will Take a Little While.
Arianna Huffington
Failure is an integral part of life and that perfection is not of this world.
Arianna Huffington
It is easier to overcome people's judgments than to overcome our own self-judgment.
Arianna Huffington
It's time for our business and political leaders to help redefine morality beyond sex, drugs, and rock and roll to include lying, hypocrisy, and callous indifference to those in need.
