"I could never try that. You see, I'm a perfectionist."

Perfectionism has such a positive aura about it. It means you like to do things well (even perfectly!)

It means you care about things, and care about people. You have an attention to detail and take pride in your work.

BUT

(you knew that was coming, didn't you?)

Perfectionism can really hold you back. It can stop you trying that side hustle or applying for that job, because you think you'd never meet your own high standards.

So, if perfectionism is holding you back, do you have to change your whole personality?

No. There's an easier way to manage perfectionism, and still be professional and get things done.
