Preventing perfectionism

Going through life as a

perfectionist will always

damage your self-esteem

and strip you of any warm

feelings of self-

acceptance you may have

for yourself .

That 's because the

impossibly high demands

you make of yourself--and

the unrealistic

expectations you place on

others--will invite only

disappointment , self-

repudiation , and

widespread unhappiness .

HOW TO

PREVENT

PERFECTIONISM?

Failure should be

considered a

teacher and

everyone should

try to learn from

it .  

Accept that

failure is part of

the process

Let out your

frustration

Be brutally

honest

Fail forward

HOW TO ACCEPT

FAILURE?

Set realistic goals for you.

Look for the positives in

yourself and your life.

Love yourself in your

entirety, including your

imperfections.

Embrace your uniqueness.

Stop procrastinating.

Think of mistakes as

lessons.
