The Perfectionism Trap : Perfect is the Enemy of Peace

Do you ever feel like no matter how much you do, it’s never quite “enough”? That’s perfectionism talking and it’s exhausting.

Perfectionism isn’t always about high standards. Sometimes it looks like:

• Procrastination because starting feels overwhelming.

• Constant self-doubt.

• Difficulty resting, even when you're tired.

Perfectionism often develops from early experiences of needing to achieve to feel safe, accepted, or valued.

In therapy, we explore where these patterns began and how to loosen their grip. We practice shifting from perfection to presence.

🌱 Today’s Practice: Choose one task to do “good enough”—then walk away. Let that be a win.
