Self HelpWhy Imperfection is Perfect for Us
I've had enough experience in life to work with people who are extremely perfectionist. They aren't awful people. Not at all. But it's sometimes very difficult to work with them because they do not only actively demand you to be perfect at what you do, but also reprimand you when you fall short of their expectations. Outside of work, they are very nice chaps, but they can really be irritable at the workplace.
I don't have any bad blood for perfectionists because there are times when I also become one, depending on the circumstances of the situation. They, however, are perfectionists all the time and I have to admit that this kind of behavior has worked wonders in their crafts and their careers. The problem is that when they fall short of their own expectations, they have the tendency to become angry with themselves. Perfection is good, but imperfection is good as well. You always have to strive for excellence in what you do, but this should only serve as a vision and an inspiration, not an all-and-be-all mission. We have to understand that imperfection arises not because we are incompetent, but because perfection is non-existent. It is a myth that can never be achieved. Think about it. Why is 99.9% always a common term to use especially when indicating how sure you are with something? The good thing about imperfection is that it allows us to spot areas where we can improve further. Imagine if we were perfect and had everything arranged according to how we wanted them to be arranged. That would result to utter dominance, sure, but that would be very boring anymore because there isn't anything to work on. Imperfection would be loads more exciting. So the next time you get angry with yourself for your imperfections (e.g. burning the food you cook, stuttering in a speech for a second), just remember that perfection is not true and that there is always a next time as long as we live.
