Episode 36 - The Pitfalls Of Chasing Perfection
In this episode of Seared, we dive into the dangers of perfectionism, using the example of a renowned chef Charlie Trotter, who pursued excellence at all costs.
While striving for excellence can be beneficial, it's essential to balance it with humility, mental health awareness, and self-care. Perfectionism can lead to significant suffering, impacting relationships, health, and overall well-being.
We explore the importance of perspective and how it can help mitigate the negative consequences of perfectionism. By understanding the pitfalls of this mindset, we can strive for excellence while maintaining a healthy and fulfilling life.
There's nothing wrong with wanting to excel in what you do and who you are, but it can literally kill you if you don't keep that sinister voice in your head that's telling you that it's not good enough in check.
