Sally Kohn: I was looking up all this research on perfectionism and it's a topic that a lot of clinical psychologists have studied. She says two psychology professors say there are two kinds of perfectionism; one is normal, the other is neurotic. So what they're saying? If only perfectionists could focus on doing their best rather than worrying about mistakes,. enjoy striving for perfection rather than being afraid of falling short of it.
Must one always strive for excellence? Is perfectionism a good thing? And can Mike have two bad days in a row?
