Ep 71: Overcoming Perfectionism
We are in the middle of a series on Balance Barriers. Last week (EP 70), I introduced you to the barrier of Perfectionism. As a recovering perfectionist myself, I am here to help you overcome this barrier in your own life. Today we discuss 5 things you can do beginning today to overcome the barrier of perfectionism.
3 Things Perfectionism is NOT
- Being detail-oriented, organized, thorough
- “Perfect” as described in Matthew 5:48
- Excellence
5 Steps to Overcome Perfectionism
- Identify your roots
- Forgive those people who demanded perfection from you as a child
- Distance yourself from controlling relationships
- Establish new habits
- Set a timer
- 5 minutes-5 things
- Replace faulty thought patterns
