How to overcome
at work
“Perfectionism is a dream killer, because it’s just fear
disguised as trying to do your best.”
“There’s no need to be perfect to inspire others.
Let’s people get inspired by how you deal with your
imperfections.”
YOUR TRIGGERS
The very first tip on how to
overcome perfectionism is to identify why you try to
be perfect.
Some people believe that
being perfect is
respectful and
admirable
The fact is that no one can be perfect.
Trying to become perfect is one way to put yourself under pressure and get stressed.
“Perfectionism is self-abuse of the highest order.”
“Perfectionism is the voice of the oppressor.”
HOPE & REALITY
Perfectionists often have
big targets which are not easy to be met.
If you want to overcome perfectionism, you
should reconsider your expectations, and balance
them with reality.
Accept your limit, as well as, other people’s limit.
“If you align expectations with reality, you will never be disappointed.”
A BIG PICTURE
Do not spend too much time concerning about “the
very little things”.
Ask yourself the questions like:
GRATITUDE
You should know that someone else is happy with less than what you have.
Look around, and you
will see that you are still happier than many other people.
You have a house or an apartment to live in.
You have a job and can do what you want.
No matter what happens to you, you still have an opportunity to change it and learn from it.
Therefore, you should
always show your gratitude to life and other people
around you
“A moment of gratitude makes a difference in your attitude.”
FORGIVE
“Forgiveness does not change the past,
but it does enlarge the future.”
Forgiveness helps
release your bad emotions and negative thoughts
If someone makes mistakes, you
should not be angry with him for too long.
What you should do is to tell that person how to avoid the mistakes, and then completely forget his fault.
& LET GO
You should learn to trust others enough to
delegate works to them.
If those people cannot fulfill a task,
teach them how, and give them a helping handrather than taking over the work
entirely.
COMPARE
Do not compare yourself with others as comparison fuels perfectionism
Each person has strong and weak points
that you may not know well.
“Don’t compare yourself to others. That’s a battle you
can never win.”
