‘Good enough’ is something perfectionists struggle with. For a perfectionist, it's not good enough until it's perfect (and even then...what if there's still more that could be done? 😬)
Perfectionists generally (usually) put far more pressure on themselves than they need to.
As a recovering perfectionist myself, I created an affirmation that reminds me to go easy on myself: *MY good enough is more than often MORE than good enough.*
Why? Because, as a perfectionist, YOUR ‘good enough’ already far exceeds most people's best effort. So, rather than add pressure to yourself, stress about every little thing, and literally lose sleep over the small stuff, accept that good enough for YOU is not just 'enough', it's MORE than enough.
Shift your perfectionist focus: See the perfection that YOU are. Just You being You is already perfect, even BEFORE you begin the project, plan the over-and-above party, and go all out for your friends.
Affirm: I AM PERFECT, JUST AS I AM.
Affirm: MY good enough is more than often MORE than good enough.
Perfect. 💕
