Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The desire to improve your performance or meet high standards is not the same as being perfectionistic. It is this very desire to meet certain goals that helps you perform effectively in your environment. #2 Perfectionism is the desire to achieve high standards, and it is different from a healthy desire to achieve high standards. Perfectionists regard anything short of perfection as unacceptable. #3 Perfectionism is defined as having high standards and expectations that are difficult or impossible to meet. It is often associated with other problems, such as anxiety and depression. #4 The appropriateness of a belief about standards for performance depends on several factors: the excessiveness of the standard, the accuracy of the belief, the costs and benefits of imposing the standard, and the flexibility of the standard or belief.
