I don't think there's an easy way out of this... I've been dealing with this same "syndrome" for a while now and, honestly, I haven't found a single way to stop my brain from looping on it... I guess it’s just wired into certain people, isn't it?
I’ll be the first to admit I’m a massive perfectionist, the kind of person who needs everything to be absolutely flawless and exactly according to my own vision, which—let’s face it—rarely actually happens, and honestly, it just wears me down. It’s a hell of a thing to deal with, even if I know deep down that I deserve everything I’m aiming for and everything I need in this life. I haven’t quite cracked the code on how to beat it yet, but I’m working on it, I really am. Personally, I’d much rather live a life defined by being exceptional than settle for some mediocre existence, because frankly, I’d sooner endure the constant grind of perfectionism than ever stoop to being just another average face in the crowd.
