Episode 17: PPT The struggle with perfectionism
Perfectionists are driven, organized, and goal oriented. That’s the good stuff. But there are some downsides to being a perfectionist
This is an episode called a Planner Pep Talk or PPT. Planning fundraising events is not easy. These pep talks are designed to let you know you're not alone with some of the frustrations and conflicts that come with planning events. Whenever you need a little encouragement, check out any of the PPT episodes.
In today’s PPT we’re going to talk about an inner conflict. The struggle with perfectionism.
Perfectionists have a lot of good qualities and make great event planners. But perfectionism has its downsides. It can impact your relationships, self-esteem and lead to burn out. It can also cause you to procrastinate.
If you struggle with perfectionism, I want you to know you're to alone.
Do you have a situation where you successfully navigated your own or someone else’s perfectionism?
