Nobody’s perfect – but some people just keep trying...
According to sociologist and former perfectionist, Dr. Christine Carter, perfectionists really need to lighten up. Paying too much attention to detail and success WILL take a significant toll on your life. New data from Trinity Western University in Canada found that perfectionists have an increased risk of death by a staggering 51%.
Perfectionists tend to have much higher levels of stress and frustration, which lowers immunity and can leave them prone to illness and depression. Those who strive for perfection in their professional lives often have little time left to care for themselves, which can be a fatal mistake.
