About this listen
In this solo episode, I explored the concept of professionalism, sharing perspectives on how perfectionism may be detrimental due to its potential to obstruct understanding of technological advancements, human ingenuity, scientific progress, and exponential growth.
I made bold claims about the problems that perfectionists often face, such as 'analysis paralysis, ' which leads to failure to launch.
Alternatively, I distinguished between perfectionism and excellence, suggesting that the key is not perfection but continuous improvement, requiring an understanding of progress, embracing challenges, recognizing and celebrating milestones, and taking feedback positively.
I underlined the significance of breaking tasks into manageable goals, adjusting aspirations according to personal capabilities, and redefining excellence to center on continuous learning and improvement.
