I may be experiencing Baader-Meinhof effect, but I am happy to notice that many people, including myself, are letting go of perfectionism to enjoy life in a fuller way. 

Im not done and It wasn't a quick nor easy transition, but I am sure my life will be different now that I have accepted and adopted this new way of living.

Jung believed that emotional pain, resentments, and fears hold us back, and rather than erasing them, we must release our attachment to these emotions to move forward.

'Being in total control meant I could avoid pain, discomfort, embarrassment, and anxiety. Or so I thought.'

I am constantly trying to solve my problems on the specific issue level ("i dont love this part of my neighborhood, it's not perfect, I must leave!" "That evening with a friend wasn't perfect, I should see them again soon to smooth it over")
The problem is this quote. Learning to go with the flow might reveal that those specific problems were symptoms, not causes.
This next year I'm trying to do the same. Let go and see what issues actually remain to solve. I'm guessing the issues remaining will be places I'm trying to still exert control ❤️
