Episode 121 - Why Your Need To Be Perfect is Killing Your Career?

In this week's episode of Finding Serenity in the Midst of Chaos Podcast, we talk about perfection and why striving for perfection can in fact kill your career.

First of all, perfection is an illusion. Perfect doesn't exist, because it is a relative term and everyone's idea for perfect is different.

Secondly and more importantly, the need to be perfect comes from the belief that 'you are not good enough!'

You see your brain creates your external reality based on your beliefs, because your actions and behaviours are projections of your internal beliefs. So if you believe you are not good enough you will do whatever it takes to find the evidence that you are not good enough. So even though you might be working, harder, faster, and longer to BE perfect, you are still trying to prove you are not good enough, therefore you'll never reach perfection! Plus, you'll end up burning out in the process.
