Some Signs You Might Be A Perfectionist

Perfectionists just like the name sounds are always striving to be perfect. They never want to make mistakes. Everything must and should go as planned.

However, there is a distinction between these people and high achievers. While high achievers are ready to make mistakes to reach their goals, perfectionists are not. And in most cases, they end up not achieving their goals. They are pushed by the fear of making mistakes.

Here are some signs you may be one of this kind of people:

Self-criticism

Perfectionists are highly critical of themselves and others. They are more likely to spot mistakes in a project than seeing areas where there were improvements.

They’re more judgmental and quick to blame themselves for the reason something is not working as it should be. Your boss may be one of this kind of people, if not you.

Crave Endorsement

Perfectionists crave approval and endorsement from other people. They believe the only persons that could see if you are doing a nice job are other people. This is even when they see they did a good job, they need someone else endorsement and praise to be satisfied.

Avoid Challenges Out Of Fear

Perfectionists are more likely to step away from tasks they presume will incur some failures, even when these failures are meant to lead to the desired success.

Spend much time on tasks

Perfectionists are more likely to spend more time on a task than others. This is because they are busy finding areas where there is a mistake and they need to correct.
