When Perfect Isn’t Good Enough: Strategies for Coping with Perfectionism http://addcopingskills.com/2011/12/when-perfect-isnt-good-enough-strategies-for-coping-with-perfectionism-3/ http://addcopingskills.com/2011/12/when-perfect-isnt-good-enough-strategies-for-coping-with-perfectionism-3/#comments Fri, 16 Dec 2011 09:23:19 +0000 admin http://addcopingskills.com/2011/12/when-perfect-isnt-good-enough-strategies-for-coping-with-perfectionism-3/
“Many people define themselves, at least in part, by the work they do. Therefore, it is generally important to them to do a good job. A salesperson generally experiences a sense of satisfaction after making a large sale. Similarly, a student usually feels good after receiving an outstanding grade on an exam or assignment. You may enjoy some spring cleaning each year. However, perfectionism may get in the way of your performance at work, home, or school. Even if your performance is not affected directly, perfectionism may still reduce your ability to enjoy work or may influence the ways in which you treat others at work.”

–from When Perfect Isn’t Good Enough

Perfectionism: What’s Bad About Being Too Good http://addcopingskills.com/2011/07/perfectionism-whats-bad-about-being-too-good/ http://addcopingskills.com/2011/07/perfectionism-whats-bad-about-being-too-good/#comments Sat, 09 Jul 2011 20:02:03 +0000 admin http://addcopingskills.com/2011/07/perfectionism-whats-bad-about-being-too-good/
Perfectionism is a problem for many teenagers today. Here’s help for Superkids, workaholics, type A’s, straight A’s, procrastinators, overachievers—and caring adults.

This thought-provoking, encouraging book explains the differences between healthy ambition and unhealthy perfectionism and gives strategies for getting out of the perfectionism trap—from recognizing the symptoms to rewarding yourself for who you are, not what you do.

It explains why some people become perfectionists, what perfectionism does to the mind and body, why girls are especially prone to perfectionism, and more. It also gives adults insight into how their behavior and expectations can contribute to perfectionism in teens they parent and teach.

The revised and updated edition of a Free Spirit classic includes new research and statistics on the causes and consequences of perfectionism, biographical sketches of famous perfectionists and risk takers, and resources for readers who want to know more.

Imagine if you could . . .

  • Radically reduce stress
  • Increase your physical vitality
  • Improve your quality of life

Now you can. We live in an age of stress. Each day at work and at home as we struggle to take care of the basics, constant stress significantly affects our ability to lead healthy and happy lives. We struggle with stomach pain, headaches, mood swings, fatigue, depression, high blood pressure, and even heart failure. Not only does stress damage our physical and emotional well-being, but our relationships and productivity suffer as well. What, if anything, can we do to stop this cycle?

There is a multitude of books, magazine features, TV programs, videotapes, meditation classes, and seminars, all aimed at stopping stress. But until now there has never been a scientifically based program that not only starts working within seconds but also creates a foundation to help remove stress and the symptoms associated with it from your life for good.

Dr. Fred Luskin and Dr. Kenneth R. Pelletier spent years at the Stanford University School of Medicine developing ten proven skills for eliminating the stress, anxiety, and pain that occur in daily life. Delivering skills that have been honed and tested among a diverse group of Americans, Stress Free for Good is easy to use and starts working immediately. Offering more than just the promise of breaking even and eliminating daily stress, these ten skills provide a foundation for living a healthier and happier life. This is not only a practical and accessible guide to conquering the stress in our lives once and for all, it is also the last stress aid you will ever need.
