Step Aside, Perfectionism! We've got action to take
Manage episode 433947306 series 3470499
Maybe you've convinced yourself that perfectionism is a good trait. I can definitely see that side of the coin too, trust me...
It means you have high standards, attention to detail, care about quality, have a strong appreciation doing things "right". It might reflect your goal-oriented, task-focused, reliable, forward-thinking, innovative side as you constantly look to make things BETTER.
And perfectionism can have some unwanted side effects: Procrastination, stopping you in the first place, causing you to question, doubt, overthink, second-guess, never share, never feel ready, never feel smart enough, good enough. It can strain relationships, take up a lot of energy, and can even lead to burnout.
What would happen if we turn down the noise of perfectionism just 1%?
In the episode, we explore exactly that as we get into:
- Perfectionism defined by Julia Cameron in her book, The Artist's Way (p.119-120 quoted)
- The upsides and downsides of being perfectionistic
- Three types of perfectionism that show up in our business
- How perfectionism can show up in marketing, collaborations, relationships, and beyond!
- Covert and overt perfectionism
- 6 Ideas to help you turn it down 1% at a time
- And more!
Journaling Prompt (from Julia Cameron's Book The Artist's Way)
- What would I do if I didn't have to do it perfectly?
- What would I say if I didn't have to say it perfectly?
Consider: Anything worth doing might be worth doing imperfectly (even badly) at first.
