Anyone else a recovering perfectionist? I know I’m not alone in the battle to feel “good enough” to achieve the dream life that I have pictured in my head.
We think that if we’re a budgeting family that we’re never allowed to get an overdraft fee again…and if we do, all financial progress has been lost. We think that if housework sometimes stresses us out that we must have failed in our attempt to be a Minimalist. We think that if we slip up and don’t hit a goal on time that we just must not be a good goal setter. False, false, and false.
Perfectionism is not a requirement for progress. Let me say it louder for the ladies in the back… YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE PERFECT TO ACHIEVE YOUR DREAMS.
In this episode, I share about:
How impostor syndrome, shame, and lack of perfectionism can diminish our sense of progress
How to deal with feeling not perfect enough
Why it’s normal to fail at perfectionism
Why you don’t have to be perfect to still make progress on your goals
Why I still deal with these negative thoughts even 5 years into my personal development journey
