Several
months ago I read an article HERE which told me I was
suffering from PERFECTIONISM.
It's a label
I am familiar with.. But this particular article suggested this trait might
inhibit my ability to progress in life.
It's
somewhat ironic, because in a professional sense, perfectionism is
applauded.
Attention to
Detail - Check
Ability to
adhere to deadlines - Check
But on a
personal level, it can be debilitating.
According to
the article, I "stay stuck
because you keep telling yourself that you have to wait until things are
perfect before you move forward."
Hmm... a
heavy concept.
But likely
true.
So what's
this perfectionist girl to do?!
Apparently, I need to "identify the area(s) in my life where I
stay stuck because I keep telling myself that you have to wait until things are
perfect before you move forward."
The concept of perfectionism, is
just one of many traits which I have come to believe define me.
Without perfectionism
- Who am I?!
But recently, I have
come to question - Why am I letting something which has the ability to paralyse
me play such an integral role in my life?
I can be 'me' anyway
I choose.
And I am so much more
than this one trait.
Which is why this
poster has struck such a chord with me -
I think I need it.
