Little by little, we can all shift our instincts and perspectives.
erfectionism is a tight, heavy energy that can remove joy from everyday moments and special occasions alike. It’s the opposite of free thought and expression, mandating that everything fits a certain way. It tells us if we aren’t doing enough or aren’t a certain way, then we aren’t really anything at all. As a recovering perfectionist, I’ve found thatin favor of practicing self-acceptance is helpful for improving mental and physical health.
In his ancient text Tao Te Ching, Chinese philosopher Lao-Tzu writes, “Because he accepts himself, the whole world accepts him.” It’s ironic, then, that so many strive for outward acceptance by exercising perfectionist tendencies rather than focusing on inward acceptance. Instead of working to conform in a certain way as a means to get external validation, we need to move toward radical self-acceptance for where we are.
Someone who is able to exercise self-acceptance in favor of a perfectionist mindset is someone who has confidence and values the power of uniqueness.
