Perfectionism is messing up your Productivity.

There are people who are afraid to fail. People who always doubt theirselves. People who alway say "my work is not good enough" " this will not do". People who are afraid to admit their own mistakes. People who fear being rejected.

If you have those thing above, you may asses yourself if this kind of mindset is helpful at all in your journey to success.

We live in a world where humans are trying their very best to be perfect and to be a perfectionist in everything. Let me ask you, is this good or bad? Well to be honest with you in my honest opinion, it's not bad to be a perfectionist but always remember that everything here on Earth has their own consequences later. If I will define a perfectionist, someone who always aim not to make mistakes and failure. Isn't it funny to think that you want to be successful but you don't want to fail or even make a single mistake in your journey. That is not possible man, mistakes and failures are ingredients to be a successful individual.

How this perfectionism thing can destroy our productivity?

Productivity is a great factor in aiming success but this one factor can be affected by our own doing ,by trying to be a perfectionist. When we do a thing and we want it to be perfect as a masterpiece but at end of the day, we do nothing. We end up messing our time to be productive and coming up with a blank output.

When we are not satisfied with our work we tend to repeat and repeat it and we don't realize how much time we wasted in making it perfect. It's not a good habbit to practice everytime we do a thing.

Being a perfectionist, they tend to settle down to their own knowledge alone and don't want to accept ideas coming from other people who's intention is just to give help in achieving that certain project or output. This kind of mindest will only lead that person to stagnation and ofcourse by being in a stagnant state you can no longer take another step to be productive.

Many define a perfectionist by being a workaholic. They tend to do everything in order to achieve a certain task and worry every single details. They do this by staying up late at night, they even forget to eat their meals leading their health status to collapse and worse case scenario they may develop some serious conditions corncering their health. Your health is the foundation of your productivity, why?. Because how can you work if your health is mess up. Poor health will only result to poor productivity.

Perfectionist thinks too much and bombarding their minds with every single solutions and ways to make an output perfect. This will make their minds fully occupied and no room for new ideas. This will also cause mental health problems and this will be tragic if this will be left unattended. You need to give attention when it comes to mental health because this is your asset in coming up ideas for you to be productive.

Perfectionist have poor relationship to people around him/her affecting the percentage of productivity. They tend to set their standard very high and this makes the people around him/her uncomfortable. In this case a perfectionist will lose the connectivity to people and this will only result to people leaving you behind because they can't connect to you. If you're making a big project, you need to welcome every single person that can help in order to attain high productivity.

So how can we avoid these things in order for you to become perfectionist?

A simple answer will do in this question. You just need to balance everything , you don't need to worry over things and making simple things very complicated. If you can do it in a simple way why not. You don't need to sacrifice your health just to achieve perfectionism. Always remember that by being healthy we are already perfect. Don't put too much preasure on you. Do it in your own unique style. Don't be afraid to fail.

Everyone of us fail and that failure will mold us to be a better version of ourself. You don't need to be a perfectionist to be a successful person. Don't overdo it or else you'll lose every single important person in your life.

I myself is not a perfectionist and I do a lot of mistakes and failures which made me to who I am today. It's ok not to be perfect.
