Today we're tackling perfectionism and how we can overcome this aspect of ourselves. Whether you think you are one or not, qualities and charastistics of perfectionism can arise under any given trigger or circumstance. Perfectionism has the potential to you to create failure in your mind before you even put yourself out there. It's a real road block from manifesting all we desire. By bringing this shadow into the light through addressing how idealizing & obsessing over unattainable, unrealistic conditions may be holding us back, we take our power back from perfectionism. We will get to the root or source of perfectionism, the symptoms, the different types, the vicious cycle, & the narratives that accompany perfectionism, in order to identify symptoms within ourselves, our triggers, and exercises we can play with to stop this cycle of perfectionism from having perpetual control over our psyche. We will leave laughing at the real paradox of the matter: that 'perfect' isn't even possible because it does not exist & everything is perfectly imperfect. So take a deep breath, and get ready to reevaluate how you approach everything you put your mind to and put out there. Overcoming perfectionism is your path to personal success.
