PERFECTIONISM . . .
PERFECTIONISM … it is unattainable & unhealthy.
Whenever I hear someone say, I just want to be perfect or… What if it isn’t the perfect time? My immediate response is what are you insecure of?
Who are you trying to please ?
Are you trying to prove something to yourself or someone else ?
Unfortunately, you often times, you have control up to a certain point and then you have to allow life to happen.
Extremely sad, isn’t it ?
What an unhealthy place people are in when they think that they have to be perfect or have all their ducks in a row before making a huge decision !
Tragic that people retire later because they feel like all the steps have to be laid out perfectly. Then when they do retire they pass away of old age or disease and never attain what they worked so hard to perfectly obtain!
When married couples wait until the perfect time to have a child….hahahaha …here’s a secret . . . YOU will NEVER be prepared for all the changes a baby brings BUT you will get ready as time ticks by ! Ohhh, one more thing, you are going to fall short of your perfect life you sketched in your brain ! Kids humble us in soooooo many ways.
That’s what it is all about. Living your life and not having that perfectionist attitude RUNNING it for you !
Take the LEAP and jump into the blue ocean that is waiting for you.
Shoot for EXCELLENCE because perfection is not healthy or important in your life. We learn from falling short just like we learn from being excellent !
