Weekly Buzz Perfection


Perfectionist are pervasive within society and they seem to think their way is always better! But from a different perspective I can tell you that if you are one of these perfectionists your perfectionism IS YOUR FLAW!
Those of us that are not perfectionists are happy to play and explore, succeed and 'fail'!
We experience joy even when our endeavors aren't perfect!
The process is our goal!
We don't actually want to live up to your expectations!
We are fundamentally content!

The Japanese philosophy of Wabi Sabi reveres imperfection.
So don't hold yourself up to someone else's ideal!
In fact you should be pitying that person because their perfectionism is like the chains that bind a prisoner. It constricts them and suffocates their creativity.
But all this doesn't mean perfectionists are the devil. It just means we should ALL be aware that differing perspectives exist.

Embrace your style but don't force it on others!
