Perfectionism may sound “perfect”, but it’s actually a trap.
- It makes you waste time on small insignificant details
- It gives you anxiety that “you aren’t good enough
and that others won’t accept you”
How do I know?
Because I used to be a perfectionist (in a bad way) and
to this day I’m still battling this tendency (although I’m
now much more action-oriented).
- I used to spend 3 hours trying to find the
“perfect cool font for my website”
- I would spend 4 hours trying to create the “perfect ad banner”
- I would research for 3 DAYS trying to find all the info
in order to “write the perfect article”
And of course, I had massive anxiety, that it would
still not be good enough.
Here’s a video that will give you a different perspective
on perfectionism:

Stop worrying about others so much and start
living up to YOUR potential!
