Do you struggle with the need to be perfect? Here’s why adopting an ‘anti-perfection’ approach could be the key to greater productivity and satisfaction at work:

“It can stop us from starting because we think, ‘This really needs to be good and I don’t have time to do it justice right now’ and can stop us from finishing, because we spend way more time than needed editing, tweaking, perfecting and adding minute improvements.”

The problem with perfectionism is that it always has you focusing on what’s wrong – it takes our focus away from what’s good “Applying an anti-perfection approach to our work means we can see mistakes, curveballs and things that don’t go to plan as opportunities to learn, innovate or pivot, rather than a sign that it’s all gone wrong or something’s wrong with us,” Marshall explains.
