Are you perfectionist
Are you perfectionist
Are you perfectionist?
Are you obsessed with perfection? Do you constantly let yourself down, no matter how well you do? Do you expect too much from those around you? Even though we live in an imperfect world there are still many who are obsessed with making their lives absolutely perfect. However, if we leave no room for error, then no matter what challenge we take on, the end result will almost always be disappointment.
This things that made me ask myself for years. Since today ive discovered this things is trully one of my traits.
Today i bought some milk which inserted in a transparent plastic <- how i tell it guys? is it right? i dont know cause i just know the phrase is seems to be like that..:(
Then after i bought it, i was try to open the transparent plastic which tied tightly. For sure, i have an habit that "i dont want to broke the plastic, and when i drink the milk, the plastic must be in good condition. Thats mean, i didnt want to ripped it away."
I try it for 10 minutes, and the tied thing still didnt want to opened. I give up then give the milk to someone i know to be opened. And you know what, she simply ripped it away by scissors and give it back to me.
From this case, i realize that something was different from me. Am I obsessed with perfection? Am i cant simply give up to everything which can take my spirit and effort down???
And the answers is....YES!
I realize in some case this perfectionist things is make me sick !!!
I can handle things fast, but when it finally end, i was feel something less from the work ive finished. So i try to work into it again and make everything less become perfect. That habit thing, surely take some of my time, and spend my money a lot.
Maybe for designer like me being the perfectionist is good in some condition, but when comes into deadline situation, is it needed anyway?
SURELY NO...
I have some of my work not finished successfully when i use this perfectionist habit. When it comes into the deadline, my work just only finished 50%. My friend who not have a perfectionist habit, was finished 100% of her work and have a high grade of her work.
When i think back of this, perfectionist maybe not needed in my work as an designer, with full of deadline project. It can ripped me through to failness.
For a designer, i told later that perfectionist will be good. But it will good NOT IN YOUR DEADLINE project. It will be needed when you have to take your design project only. Like to build your own logos, website, or what. This thing is really needed.
But i recommend you that, when it comes into deadline time or something little like i did today, YOU DONT NEED PERFECTIONIST. It will surely take your time and waste your effort.
So please guys, if you are perfectionist like me, you must choose smartly when that perfectionist thing needed and when its not needed.
When you choose it with wrong situation, it will surely take no advantage for you~
Have a nice day~=]
