Perfectionism is the tendency to want to do everything perfectly and setting an extremely high standard for ourselves and for our work.

And this is mostly seen as a virtue by most of us in our society, because who doesn’t want to set a high standard for themselves? It is treated as having a good work ethic and as a great personality trait to have.

In this episode, I share why I am no longer rooting for perfectionism and how freeing this has been for me. I now believe that it takes courage to not be a perfectionist and by not being one, you become a much more creative person. 

Listen to the episode to know why you should stop being a perfectionist.
