Perfection is great. Imperfectionist make it bigger.#intermediate #psyhology
Perfectionism is the belief that if we live perfect, look perfect, and act perfect; we can minimize or avoid the pain of
blame(вина),
judgment(суждение), and
shame(стыд). Perfectionism is a twenty-ton
shield(щит) that we
lug(тащить) around thinking it will protect us when, in fact, it’s the thing that’s really preventing us from taking flight.
Personally, I like the twenty-ton shield analogy. Has
lingered(задержался) with me when I procrastinate implicitly worried about perfectionism.
