👀THIS MIGHT SOUND A BIT FAMILIAR👀 

Ever been called a perfectionist? These scenarios miiiight sound a bit familiar…

You catch yourself daydreaming… only you’re too scared to turn that dream into a goal, for fear that you might “do it wrong”.

You want to start sharing your creative work with the world, but don’t see the point if you can’t do it perfectly.

You’re curious about trying a new type of journaling, but always set your standards so high that you feel like you’re bound to fail.

Ouch.

You’re harder on yourself than anyone else. Cue the low self esteem, the confidence issues and the constant fear.

It’s hard work being a perfectionist.

But here’s what you can do about it…

🧠 Reframe your thinking, turn “what could go wrong” into “what could go right” to decide if it’s worth the risk

📔 Check if your goals are realistic, if a friend was setting them would you say “you’re taking on too much”?

💖 Disconnect any failure from yourself. You are not a failure, it’s just a task that failed

"Failure is a part of the process. You just learn to pick yourself back up."

Michelle Obama
