NOTE

Dealing With Perfectionism

It's helpful to be part of a culture that accepts and even celebrates human fallibility. You need strategies for dealing with perfectionism within yourself, which is about normalizing your own mistakes and failures. Personally, i've found it helpful to adopt anti perfectionism. I want to get as good as humanly possible at failing. If i haven't had at least three projects flop at the end of the year, i know i've just been repeating what i'm already good at and in my comfort zone.
