The pain of the Perfectionists.

Because grown up to understand EP.2

1 of the things Perfectionists don't like best is "mistakes."

Often when making mistakes, many people will say, "Because we are human, mistakes are common."

But for the Perfectionists, that's not it.

Mistakes often turn into a sense of disappointment, heavy in the heart, and sometimes a repeat of a mistake can cause the Self-esteem to diminish to almost nothing.

Because, in the Perfectionists' view, a mistake is not just one incident that has already passed, but it becomes evidence that confirms the idea in the head that

"I'm not good enough."

"I Should Have Done Better"

"Why can this be missed?"

The more determined and dedicated a person is, the more serious the disappointment of mistakes is often.

Because Perfectionists often tie their own values to their works, achievements, and ability to do everything right.

When well done, ten stories "may feel passive."

But when you miss one story, you think about it over and over again and forget what you've accomplished.

The hardest thing for a Perfectionist, therefore, is not to do a good job, but to admit that we still have the right to err, and that mistakes do not diminish our value as human beings.

Because ultimately, the value of a person is not measured by the number of times we never miss, but by the way we can continue to rise, learn and move, even when everything is not as perfect as we hoped.

And sometimes what the heart of the Perfectionists wants is not to hear that mistakes are common.

But it may be learning that self-worth does not diminish every time one makes a mistake, and that making a mistake in some matters does not mean that we fail in all matters of life.

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ของหลายคนที่เป็น Perfectionist จริง ๆ แล้วความผิดพลาดไม่ได้เป็นเพียงแค่เหตุการณ์แค่นั้น แต่กลับเป็นสิ่งที่ส่งผลกระทบลึกซึ้งต่อความรู้สึกและคุณค่าของตัวเองที่ผูกไว้กับความสมบูรณ์แบบ การเข้าใจและให้พื้นที่กับตัวเองได้ผิดพลาดเป็นจุดเปลี่ยนสำคัญที่ช่วยให้ใจได้พักและพร้อมที่จะเรียนรู้มากขึ้น ความเชื่อที่ว่า "ความผิดพลาดเป็นเรื่องธรรมดา" อาจฟังดูง่าย แต่การจะสลัดความคิดเชิงลบที่ผูกติดกับตัวตนออกไปนั้นทำได้ยาก โดยเฉพาะอย่างยิ่งเมื่อชาว Perfectionist กำหนดตัวเองผ่านผลงานและความสำเร็จ ตัวอย่างเช่น เมื่อทำงานเสร็จเรียบร้อยครบถ้วนสิบเรื่อง อาจไม่ได้รู้สึกพึงพอใจเท่าไหร่ แต่เมื่อพลาดเพียงข้อเดียว กลับกลายเป็นว่าคิดวนซ้ำจนยากที่จะปล่อยวาง เคล็ดลับที่ช่วยได้คือการฝึกเปลี่ยนมุมมองจากการมองความผิดพลาดเป็นหลักฐานแห่งความล้มเหลว มาเป็นบทเรียนและโอกาสในการเติบโต เช่น ให้โอกาสตัวเองได้แก้ไขข้อผิดพลาดนั้นอย่างใจเย็น รวมทั้งรับรู้ว่าคุณค่าของเราไม่ได้ขึ้นอยู่กับความสมบูรณ์แบบแต่ขึ้นอยู่กับความพยายามและความสามารถในการลุกขึ้นใหม่ นอกจากนี้ การแบ่งปันความรู้สึกและความคิดกับคนที่เข้าใจคล้ายกัน หรือแม้แต่การบันทึกความสำเร็จที่ทำได้ในแต่ละวัน ก็เป็นวิธีสร้างกำลังใจและช่วยให้ชาว Perfectionist ไม่จมอยู่กับความผิดพลาดจนเกินไป สุดท้าย การยอมรับว่าการเติบโตคือกระบวนการที่ประกอบด้วยทั้งชัยชนะและข้อผิดพลาด จะทำให้ชีวิตสมดุลขึ้น และช่วยให้หัวใจได้เรียนรู้วิธีรักตัวเองในทุก ๆ สถานการณ์
