Lesson Overview

3.03 – Dealing with Perfectionism: Wanting to do well is healthy, but perfectionism traps you in fear of mistakes. It turns goals into pressure and learning into stress. Every small flaw feels like failure, and that makes you avoid risks. Progress happens through imperfection; growth lives in trying again. To manage it, you must redefine what success means. Instead of flawless work, aim for complete and honest effort. Learn to notice when you’re chasing approval instead of improvement. Celebrate finishing tasks, not just doing them perfectly. Remind yourself that others are not judging every detail the way you are. Mistakes don’t erase talent—they shape it. Balance high standards with compassion for yourself. Each step you take builds real skill. Let progress replace perfection as your goal, and peace will follow.
