A Perfectionist's Guide to Not Being Perfect
Description
It's hard to be happy when you've created a very narrow window of what defines success.
Do you try to do everything perfectly? Do you wear yourself down and still constantly not feeling good enough? This helpful book will encourage you to maintain your desire to achieve without striving to always be perfect. It's all about appreciating and loving yourself for who you are, not what you accomplish.
When you recognize that perfectionism can be a disadvantage, you can become motivated to do something about it. Expert author Dr. Bonnie Zucker will help you understand what perfectionism is, how it's interfering with your life (not helping it!), and what you can do about it. You can be successful, happy, and confident . . . without having to be perfect.
