72 | Perfectionism Is Causing You Pain
from Because, Why Not? Hosted by Grace L.P. Beason
Are you a perfectionist? Are you a high achieving woman? So many of us who have spent our lives trying to be and do and have it all can identify with these descriptors. Whether it is about your body, your career, your home, your family, or your finances, there are myriad ways that we aim high and set unreasonable and unattainable standards for ourselves. Trying to achieve perfection in any area is a losing battle because perfection isn't real. But! Knowing that is not enough. We must become willing to identify where our striving for perfection is making us miserable and care more about our own inner peace than about achieving "perfection". How do we do this? For many of us it is about stopping seeking external validation from others. For others who are constantly seeking their own validation, it's about recognizing the perfectionism is an unrealistic finish line that is causing you pain and that your greatest happiness lies on the other side of seeking it.
