4 Secrets for Perfectionists Who Want To Finally Enjoy Being Done

A friend of mine was being a wallflower because he couldn’t dance salsa. The truth is, he was taking lessons, had been for months, and did know how to dance. Clearly a struggling perfectionist who just needed to go for it anyway.

What are you trying to get just right?
