Why You Strive To Be Perfect

Psychotherapist and best-selling author helps her students and clients manage these five types of Inner Critics: Restless Inadequate Perfectionist Guilty Victim “The PERFECTIONIST Inner Critic keeps you dependent on constant achievement in order for you to feel worthy and validated.  You believe if you don’t succeed, you are flawed, inferior, incompetent and inadequate.  Your Perfectionist Inner Critic thinks the way to motivate you is to criticize you and compare you to others so that you will keep striving to be better and better .” Joann Kleinman I invite you to consider these questions: When do you notice striving to be the best? When do you equate success with worthiness? When do you hustle for control? When do you notice getting over-fixated on your image? How were you expected to perform as a child?
