The idea of being a perfectionist might seem like a desirable trait. However, you have no idea how much it could be holding you back.

From personal experience, wanting to be "a perfectionist" is anxiety-inducing and self-sabotaging.

Wanting to produce perfect work is the perfect recipe for creeping procrastination.
As a small youtuber, no video I'll make will ever be perfect. However, I can strive towards greatness, without fearing to make minor mistakes or let small things I could have done differently haunt my mind.

People who say that they are perfectionists are possibly coping hard. It takes courage to not be a perfectionist. It takes courage to accept the possibility of failure. In short, a good execution beats no execution.

You'll have a lot less anxiety, which may directly improve your overall performances and quality of life.
