    yeah!I used to be obsessed with the "idea of perfection".I used to tell myself that "I have to do things perfectly" and no sooner I think of perfection I get overwhelmed with lots of doubts and fear.

    I used to feel like a loser for NOT being PERFECT and as a matter of fact I ended with low self-esteem and lot of frustration. I DIDN'T REALIZE then that "the idea of PERFECTION"ONLY exists in our MIND.In LIFE we ARE NEVER perfect BECAUSE We are EMOTIONAL beings and every moment we MAKE decisions based on OUR state of MIND and MIND by nature is ALWAYS FLUCTUATING.(In layman terms "MOOD SWINGS" which EVERYONE experiences EVERYDAY )!

    So No NEED to WORRY about PERFECTNESS.You're GOOD just the way you ARE.

    I say,therefore,BE YOURSELF and develop a proper perspective towards life (in my view IT IS POSITIVE ATTITUDE )!All the best! :)

    No one is perfect, and trying to be the perfect anything only tends to show us how imperfect we really are. Sometimes I think that we tend to project our own perfectionist tendencies onto others and feel like it's them who expects us to be perfect. But in reality, it's us who has the highest expectations of ourselves. Give yourself a break and learn to embrace the perfectly imperfect person you are :)

    The best thing is that you are perfect...ly human. Just be yourself. You go girl and have fun because there is plenty of time to be perfect later. And eonce you get on in age you'll realize that you haven't been perfect but you have done just fine.
