Problem being a Perfectionist
"Being perfectionist is also a problem."
In psychology, perfectionism is a personality trait characterized by “a person's striving for flawlessness and setting excessively high performance standards, accompanied by overly critical self-evaluations and concerns regarding others' evaluations"
The problem is that perfectionism isn't helping people to reach those high standards they aspire to. Perfection is a filtered way of seeing yourself and the world and leaves people feeling lonely, worthless, unable to perform.
They set high standards for themselves in their lives and careers, but are able to go after their goals. High self-oriented perfectionism is generally associated with the most “adaptive” traits correlated with greater productivity and success.
Most common behaviour of perfectionist:
They're an All or Nothing.
The Crave Approval.
Feedback makes them defensive.
They are highly critical of others.
They are full of guilt.
Perfectionism can make you feel unhappy with your life. It can lead to depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and self-harm. Eventually, it can also lead you to stop trying to succeed.
You need to be perfectionist but also need to be accommodating.
You need to change as per the need of the hour.
You need to find alternatives.
You need to team up.
