DAY 2: PERFECTIONISM
This week, I’m sharing some common signs that hidden obstacles may be holding you back. Today, let’s shine a light on perfectionism—the kind that paralyzes you every time you create something new. (If you even get that far…)
You might not even realize perfectionism is holding you back. You may think striving for perfection is a good thing. Why not be the best you can be for yourself and others?
But here’s the truth: nothing and no one is ever perfect. (And what even is perfect, anyway?) What seems flawless to you may look completely different to someone else.
So, how do you deal with perfectionism?
Do you push and force yourself to take action? Do you keep tweaking and perfecting until you finally feel ready to share? Or does it keep you stuck in place, exhausted and stressed?
Maybe you try to mindset-work or heal your way out of it, only to find yourself struggling again every time you create something new.
But what if you didn’t have to fight it or fix it?
Perfectionism is often driven by deeper fears, like the fear of not being good enough or being criticized. And the good news is, you don’t need to dig into these fears or struggle to overcome them.
When you shift into a different way of being, those internal obstacles, fears, and beliefs naturally dissolve.
This shift is simple and available to everyone—including you.
And I teach you how to make this shift in my upcoming workshop, Break Free—effortlessly overcome your hidden barriers without pushing, forcing, or figuring out what’s keeping you stuck, on Friday, September 27. (Replay available.)
