  • When does trying to be perfect backfire?
    When the wrong type of 'Perfectionism' takes over it can keep you STUCK and unproductive! You end up self-sabotaging and holding yourself back at work and in life. You limit your success, and your happiness.
    If you can relate to this perfectionism thing and you find that it holds you back (like it almost did to me with this email), then you DEFINITELY want to watch this episode where I share:
    • What perfectionism really is,
    • The two primary dimensions of perfectionism (and how it’s not always bad!), and
    • My 4 favorite strategies to work through it so that you can get un-stuck!

  • @sourabhshrivastava2238

    Strive for excellence rather than maladaptive perfection
    1. Evaluate your intent- perfection should not be your goal.
    2. Re evaluate your standards- keep your expectations in check. Be realistic
    3. Reset your standards and commit- don't be a maximizer
    4. Expose yourself to imperfection

    Thanks Shade.
    I am this guy who has had this maladaptive perfectionism and working to deal with it for good, I remember around this time of the year, one year ago I was at a dark place with severe gastrointestinal pain, back pain from working waaaay beyond the normal working hours. This was made worse because I was refraining from asking for help in an effort to "look" like I know when I didn't. It has been quite a journey and I am working on myself daily by God's grace.
    Since I discovered your channel I have absorbed so much value from your clips.
    May God add value to every portion of your life just as you are pouring out yourself to us.

    I love this video!!! I cannot tel you how much I agree with you. This is exactly what I said in my last job interview. I don’t believe in perfection, I strive for excellence and reflect on my mistakes to learn from them and grow as a whole rounded human being. I have spent many years of my life beating myself up for not being “perfect” and you know what? When I look back, those standards have changed so much in my mind and my heart, I feel sorry for myself and I wish I could give my self a big hug. Because I don’t even believe in those “perfections” anymore. I am valuing my own experience and my life lessons learned from not being perfect and even failing much more than I could ever value being the “picture perfect” person, wherever it means 😅

    Good advice. I see myself in this. Another issue with perfectionism is that you spend so much time working on a project that you neglect any social life. You find you only have colleagues and coworkers and no friends or social life beyond work. Not healthy. Thanks for sharing.

  • @joaomendes1574
    @joaomendes1574 3 роки тому +5

    Thank you for your insights. I guess analysis paralysis relates strong with perfectionism. Maybe impostor syndrome too. I feel that all of that relates to past criticism (not feedback) and bullying. The past criticism grows the fear of failure and with that, the perfectionism behaviour.

    • @rajukhubchandani4841
      @rajukhubchandani4841 3 роки тому

      Critiques are welcome who tell us good and bad, but critics who tell us only the bad, are welcome only when I ask for feedback. Critics have helped me improve too. But, the bottom line is to focus on oneself, not others. Improve oneself from the current state, check competition for inspiration, doing something different, etc., but not for focussing on them, but one's own strengths that maybe the competition does not have. Competitors can be unintentional teachers, so why shun them. Bottom line, believe in oneself, but not blindly, sometimes test one's beliefs.
