My perfectionism unfortunately kept me sidelined a little too long in life. If I couldn't do an action perfectly - if I feared not being good at something - I wouldn't even start. A horrible way to go through the best, most youthful years of young-adult life.

Striving for perfectionism tolls one, and it's even harder to live around a perfectionist.
But I have this phrase in my mind,
"Good is the enemy of best"
If you are happy with what's good enough you will not try to reach your best potential.
A bit of striving, for perfecting stuff will make life a sweet balance.

{erfectionism often stems from childhood trauma. As someone who is recovering from perfectionism and identifies as a Type A personality, I experienced abandonment during my childhood. This trauma caused me to overcompensate in areas such as school and work. ❤️ just wanted to share my perspective on this issue 🙏
