- Do you feel like what you accomplish is never enough? Do you find yourself waiting to turn in or do projects, waiting to get them just right? Do you feel like you must give 110% on everything?
If you answered "yes", then you may be wrestling with perfectionism. This popular term refers to a set of self-defeating thoughts and behaviors that strive to reach unrealistic goals. While our society praises this type of attitude, it is not biblical and even harmful. Perfectionism can trap us in negative cycles of depression and anxiety. Unfortunately, Christians aren't immune to these thoughts or behaviors. So, how do we work through and recover from perfectionism?
In this episode, Cat and Nicole explore where perfectionism can come from, what the Bible has to say about it, and 7 practical ways to combat it.
