Perfectionism is not always a bad thing, because the desire for perfection forces us to improve ourselves.
However, if you notice that you start setting unattainable goals for yourself and get very upset when nothing works out, your perfectionism is unhealthy.
Let's figure out what steps will help you get rid of it.
First, it is worth separating the spheres of life. Decide in which areas you absolutely must adhere to perfectionism and in which you can show weakness. For example, working as a chief accountant, a person is not at all obliged to cook in the kitchen like a chef.
Secondly, you need to focus on the process of achieving the goal. If we are talking about a long-term perspective, a person may give up in the middle of the process.
This is why it is so important to be patient and not constantly think about the future final result.
For the same reason, it is important to learn to sincerely rejoice in intermediate successes.
And give up the habit of blaming yourself for not being able to achieve results quickly.
