Sometimes I leave my papers until the very last moment, stay up all night doing them, and then don’t feel they’re good enough to hand in the next day. So I don’t, and keep hoping that I’ll just hand it in later when it’s better and everything will work out okay. Unfortunately, society requires that deadlines be respected even if they don’t make personal sense to me. And what I’ve discovered is that the original work I did would have been good enough anyway.
Perfectionism is really all in your head. But how, when it comes down to those minutes stretching into hours of fixing, fixing, fixing something, do you tell yourself that and get yourself to recognize its validity?
