I seem to be the only one on earth who is pushing the narrative of embracing perfectionism to the fullest, because perfectionism is synonymous with the authentic self’s passion and desires.
What other people demonize by calling the number one obstacle that is holding them back from starting before they’re ready or one of the major causes of their procrastination tendencies or habits, is in fact just their innate desires, impulses, aspirations, and urges to get maximum, full, or at least most of the reward that could be received or reached from accomplishing a certain outcome or objective.
Perfectionism is not something we induce. It comes to us. If we ignore, bypass, or suppress it, we will only be overriding or opposing our own true nature in favor of finishing stuff faster even at the expense of its quality, just because they told us to do so.
Never has perfectionism ever decreased anyone’s progress.
This is just them hesitating, making excuses, lowering their standards, having no problem with embracing their own incompetence instead of being ambitious enough to want to improve enough to have what it takes to meet the qualifications of succeeding at such goal, achievement, or type of work.
Everything is good the way it is. You just need to be more grateful. Why change anything. A few seconds later they turn around and tell you it’s all your fault, and you need to take one hundred percent responsibility for everything in your life. Conflicting information is what renders you paralyzed. And then they call this analysis paralysis, and recommend that you just start before you’re ready. No qualifications required. No questions asked. Everybody can do it. So can you. After that they warm you up a little bit by throwing a stunning notion that everything is just mindset. And that you need to alter the way you think in order to be happier, because who cares about success now when the definition has been rewritten into being all about happiness.
