You may be surprised to learn that perfectionism is indeed not to your advantage.<\/li>\n<li class=\"mb-1\">Instead of aiming for 100 percent, try for 60 percent, then see how much you enjoy the activity and how productive you will become. Dare to aim at being average!<\/li>\n<li class=\"mb-1\">Estimate how perfectly you have completed on a task, as well as how satisfying it has been. This helps you break the illusory connection between perfection and satisfaction.<\/li>\n<li class=\"mb-1\">You may have believed that trying your best would mean achieving a perfect score. It is questionable that the model of perfection ever really fits reality.<\/li>\n<li class=\"mb-1\">Wrong-doings would create fear and uneasiness. If you choose to give up your perfectionism, you may initially have to confront a fear, since fear is the fuel that drives your compulsion to polish things to utmost flawlessness.<\/li>\n<li class=\"mb-1\">Try to focus on processes rather than outcomes as a basis for evaluation.<\/li>\n<li class=\"mb-1\">Making mistakes is not fearful. Reluctant to take risks may instead take away your capacity for growth.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-206957f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"206957f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span class=\"reference2\">References:<\/span><\/p><p class=\"reference\">Burn, D.
