What Is Perfectionism?

I think sometimes it's just thrown around as a label for people who have high standards or who do good work. I actually really don't like that definition or that style of defining, because if you think about it deeply, OK, so there's two elements. One is your self-worth depending too much on something and then there's this idea that you can have goals that are arbitrarily too high. And both of those are perfectionistic. So anything off those two criteria then is like your endanger of becoming a perfectionist. It doesn't seem to be helpful at all.
