Trying To Be A Perfectionist
After many hours of practice and training until i got the product i wanted, the product i thought people would love enjoy and cherish , that"s when i decided to build a website and sell my productI started this little venture as a hobby that was 12 years ago i had just retired from the military and was bored so i began a new venture making a website and started making screen savers i also made slide shows and videos doing a lot of wedding and graduations. I owned a domain but after 8 years gave it up and sold my domain after a two year absence and much boredom i decided to start up again but this time limiting myself to just making screen savers
I make the product add special effects and the customers choice of music is added, my site linksĀ photography sites, and many other valuable,sites soon i found myself the biggest critic of my work everything i did was not good enough i had to do better, it hasĀ to be perfecta i told myself, but nothing seemed good enough, where do we draw the line
Trying to be a perfectionist is almost a sickness,
I have used lots of my time trying different methods on how to be the best in what i do although I have had many positive feed backs on my work i feel there is still much room for improvement, sometimes your best is not what you think, maybe it should be left for what other people think is.
Recently i made a project for a client and was thrilled to hear that they thought it was super great when i thought it was maybe a little above average, as you can see the perfection syndrome is still there i keep telling myself that it is what it is, but always end up worrying could i have done better if there is a cure for this i sure have not found it yet,sometimes trying to be perfect can be a sickness, like becoming an alcoholic your not born with it you have to make it happen,I am sure there are many others who feel that they must do better than best, but the end result is that you gave it 100 percent, and the rest will be left to the critics, positive or negative, my coach once told me do the best you can do and that is all you really can do.
