As a Recovered Perfectionist, I know how hard it can seem to let go of Perfectionism. ⁠
⁠
▪️The need to prove yourself through every single detail

▪️Getting stuck in chronic procrastination cycles and then working in a frenzy at the last minute (anxious feelings through the roof)

▪️Constantly expecting more of yourself and dismissing any good results that come your way anyway. 
⁠
It was an exhausting cycle 🔁⁠ 
nothing was ever enough. 
⁠
But for us to achieve our career goals AND actually believe we are deserving of them, we have to be willing to let go of the idea of ‘Perfection’.⁠

We need to strive for excellence instead. 

And we need to establish our “good enough” metrics. 

Even in the most demanding of professions - where mistakes can be serious, perfection is not the answer. 

It’s time to release the pressure valve. 

Even just a little makes a big difference.
