Deep dives

Balancing High Standards and Rigidity

The key is to determine if your adherence to strict timelines and high standards is preventing you from what truly matters to you and hinders your personal growth. If your rigidity is causing you to neglect relationships and important aspects of your life, then it may be too rigid. However, if your routines and high standards contribute to your personal growth, help you achieve your goals, and allow you to engage in what you love, then they are a positive attribute.
