Overcoming Perfectionism

How to Let Go of Self-Criticism, Build Self-Esteem, and Find Balance

By: Clive Reed

Narrated by: Austin R. Stoler

Perfectionism is a character or personality trait that causes life to feel like a never-ending report card. A perfectionist feels as if they are being forever graded on their accomplishments, appearance, organization, and just about everything else.

This audiobook explores the ways in which perfection can have positive and motivational impacts, like providing the drive to overcome adversity or achieve certain goals. However, it can often become difficult to manage and lead to unhealthy outcomes that can translate quickly into anxiety, relationship challenges, daily struggles, and overall unhappiness.

You’ll learn how to identify perfectionistic tendencies and their triggers as well as how to build self-acceptance and self-esteem. Learning to cope with and manage perfectionism can lead to better relationships with family, coworkers, and most importantly, with yourself.

Case studies, professional advice, practical tips, chapter recaps, and several easy-to-follow mini-lessons are included in order to make this an audiobook that listeners will use as a reference tool for many years to come.

Amazing!

I love that the tips are practical and can be used in real-life scenarios. I love it. Amazing content.

Goodbye perfectionism!

Perfectionism results in depression, anxiety, anger, stress, frustration, but it a great motivator too. Perfectionists are usually focused on the end result, instead of enjoying the journey. The author provides well-conceived, well-organized, and thoroughly researched work that can be read by anyone desirous to fight perfectionistic characteristics and thereby build your self-esteem, and self-confidence.

Love IT

Very informative !!!

Learnt a lot from this audiobook. Chapter 6 was my favourite.

Well done to the author and the narrator.

I highly recommend this audiobook to all entrepreneurs and career workers.

Excellent!

Although I would have appreciated the author expanded more on some topics, I think it is excellent overall.

Did I Need to Listen to This Book? Yes!

It has been a while since I did any self-reflection and glad I did. Chapter 1 gave some good definitions to frame the process. Then the author gives both sides of the issue for balance and clarification. There are many tools in this book for improvement; even if you are not a perfectionist. Certainly in our times, we all know at least one perfectionist close to us. This is not a book report so I will just say, very helpful and recommended!
