Why not combine perfectionism and creativity?

• Why can not I combine perfectionism and creativity?

Too close attention to detail is able to destroy the creative process in the bud. Today I decided to tell you, what daily challenges faced by the inveterate perfectionist.

Perfectionists - those who often suffer from their own inflated and unrealistic expectations in relation to himself. Many rightly argue, when we say that perfectionism takes a person a lot of resources, and in return gives the illusory and unattainable illusion. It turns out that perfectionism - is constantly working at maximum capacity.

Everyone who came across the creative sector, well aware that the desire to do everything as best as possible, could adversely affect the job completely and at the same time take away a lot of time. We perfectionists, eager to make your job a hundred shall never pass away. This is inherent in man.

In no event should not think that if a person is not a perfectionist, he does his job badly. All people are different and the purpose they serve is also different. Excellent when a man knows what he needs to strive for. But if we take into account the perfectionism, in any creative field, one needs to know when they need to stop.

Pitfalls

The quest for the ideal can cause a person to stand still for a long time. In addition, the work of a perfectionist, an ongoing analysis of the work process meticulously to detail and move aside the new productive ideas, simply because people will fear the possibility of failure in their or in the eyes of others. It is believed that perfectionism does not lead the person to improve the quality of their work, but rather worsens it. That he can dictate what you do not succeed and you need to start all over again.

When you look at his work more than once, I notice more and more of some errors in fact visible only to you, and because of this spawn a doubt. Therefore, do whatever is necessary to measure and try to avoid rechecking their work.

A person needs to understand where common desire to perfect and totally healthy perfectionism. Many of the studies that are conducted in the United States, show that it is able to prevent a person perfectionism succeed. And when we begin to doubt yourself and your business, you can often make depression or neurosis.

When you need to say to myself stop? This question is very important and necessary. Try to distinguish between time for yourself. Assume that, how many hours you need to perform a particular case. Do not engage in self-deception and do not invent themselves a lot more time than you need, because thereby you will feed your desire for perfectionism.

I am such as I am

Perfectionism may deliberately keep you iron bars of doubt and fear, in order to show their work to others, or to put it on display for sale. Fear of driving into a dead end, that dictates that your work is not good, that it can not buy, do not appreciate and do not recommend to others.

My advice to you, eyes closed, with trembling hands, but be sure to show your writings to anyone. It will serve as a quench. Of course, no one said it would be easy, but if you want to live in peace, we must work hard.

That is, after you make the first step and cease to strive for something beyond the clouds, you can quickly see how much power over you. The work will be much more productive and better, just because you have a stone will not hang over your head called "perfectionism." It will not lower your head, every time you will finish the job. You will be able to breathe, calm down and calmly to do twice the work faster and it does not mean that it will be of poor quality. Believe me, you will be able to change the approach to your work and creativity in general. Therefore, do not stop, but to create as much as possible!
