A guide for getting your perfectionism to work for you
Is perfectionism a good thing or does it get in our way? In
The Perfectionist's Handbook, clinical psychologist Jeff
Szymanski helps readers navigate their way out of the
"perfectionism paradox": if your intentions are good (wanting to
excel) and the outcomes you want are reasonable (to feel competent
and satisfied), why would perfectionism backfire and result in
unhappiness and stress? Learn when perfectionism will pay off, and
when and why it sabotages you. Specific strategies are outlined
throughout the book to help readers transform their perfectionism
from a liability to an asset.
There is no reason to eliminate perfectionism
altogether--instead, build on what's working and change what's
not. The Perfectionist's Handbook helps readers to:
* Distinguish between intention and strategy as a way of
improving outcomes
* Identify diminishing returns and how to redistribute time and
resources
* Make the most of mistakes rather than being preoccupied with
trying to avoid them
* Learn to focus on your "Top 10" list as a way of getting the
most out of your life
* Access others more effectively as a way of improving
performance
* Obtain more balance in their lives
