The search for perfectionism generates procrastination

One thing that happens to all of us humans is the constant search that we have for perfectionism, but those moments when we want to achieve perfection and do our best so much that all we can actually do is stagnate.

This paralysis that we have for the pursuit of perfection defines that state in which we want to reach more than 100% of the potential and if we cannot, then we paralyze, when in fact what we should do to succeed in something is to first discard the idea of achieve something perfect, because that status may never be achieved.

However, we shouldn't let our brain feed on that focus and that sick need to want to start or finish when it is perfect. Many of our demands and peculiarities should be set aside, because the uncontrollable desire for perfection makes some people totally unbearable, and this is not good even for physical and mental health because it would cause us emotional distress and psychological exhaustion.

Manuel Vicent already said - "Perfection is death, imperfection is art."

We live in an era where we are more perfectionists than ever, we are paralyzed by the fear of failure, and all of this has generated a high cost, resulting in anxiety disorders, stress, depression, eating disorders, and consequently we are blocked and creativity does not come to fruition. afloat.

When we constantly strive for perfection, we are immobilized by the fear of failure and of not meeting our expectations and those that others have of us, because we want to do our best, we want to offer something extraordinary, but not every time this is possible.
