JOURNAL SET 1 PERFECTIONISM



                Perfectionism is an attempt to make the best and to reach unrealistic goals.  The desire to be perfect has some possible negative effects on people in my opinion.

                Initially, loss of self-confident and failure may be among possible effects. One who is perfectionists is likely to set unattainable goals and feel pressure on him in order to reach the goals, and this pressure may lead to his constant failure. In addition, because of the constant failure, one blames himself persistently and this may lead to lose his self-confident.

                 Secondly, perfectionist attitudes may cause depression and prevent ones to improve themselves. Perfectionists try to achieve perfection and set unrealistic goals, so not being able to be perfect and reach the goals may make them go into depression. Moreover, perfectionists dare not to learn new things due to fear of failure or making mistakes, so they miss opportunities to improve themselves.

                Finally, perfectionism may cause nervousness. Perfectionists may realize even the smallest error in their work and they think they are unsuccessful because the work is not perfect. This thought may cause them to be nervous all their life. In addition, they cannot bear people who are not like them because they are flawed, irresponsible and frivolous, so living with them may cause them to be irritable.

               In conclusion, the desire to be perfect may make one’s life miserable, so trying to avoid being perfectionist may enable one to be self-confident, successful, happy, open-minded and calm.
