Introduction

If you have already allowed perfectionism to take over your daily life, know that it can be successfully resolved by learning to accept yourself and your limitations.

1. Take a step back from a project: Instead of trying to make it perfect, take the big picture and break it down into the smallest sized pieces that your brain needs to be able to cooperate and not stall out on. Ask yourself what the ONE next step is that you can successfully do, and focus on that. Continue to repeat until the process is done.  
2. Practice self-compassion: Instead of being hard on yourself when things don’t go as planned, give yourself a break. Don’t name call or put yourself down, just recognize there are triggers that have activated. Become a neutral referee, back up, and figure out what they are.   
3. Celebrate small successes: Acknowledge and celebrate each and every small success along the way. This will help to keep your brain motivated to stay on task.  
4. Embrace Imperfection: Recognize that perfection is an unattainable standard and instead, focus on progress and growth. Embrace the idea that making mistakes is a natural part of the learning process and an opportunity for improvement. 
5. Set Realistic Goals: Break down your goals into smaller, achievable tasks. Set realistic expectations for yourself and prioritize progress over perfection. Celebrate each milestone along the way, fostering a sense of accomplishment and motivation.

Remember, overcoming perfectionism is a journey that requires patience and self-reflection. Be gentle with yourself and embrace the beauty of imperfection.

Know that feedback and ideas from others need to be separated from who you are as a person. By doing this you will become less reactive and more receptive to their input.
