"It's got to be perfect!"

15/8/2018

In my day job, I come across a lot of people who strive for perfection. It’s something that I’ve noticed more and more in the teaching profession over the years, no doubt associated with the amount of testing, assessing, checking and re-checking (just in case things have changed in the three minutes since the previous assessment was made). I found this ‘perfect’ quote from Brené Brown, who is a research professor at the University of Houston, Texas.

“Perfectionism is armour. It’s not internally driven like healthy striving. It’s externally driven and fuelled by ‘What will people think?’ Perfectionism is a shield that keeps us from being seen. Here’s to a genuine, unamoured, messy, awkward, compassionate, less-than-perfect life.”
​
I love this attitude and strive for it daily, saying to myself that it really doesn’t matter what people think and it is perfectly acceptable to be seen. How about you? For more on the marvellous Brené, take a look at www.brenebrown.com.

(My idea of 'perfection' looks a little something like this - taken at Lake Windermere last week. Beautiful!)
