Být perfektní nemusí být perfektní - Zvládejte svůj perfekcionismus – Martin Sharon (2023)

Do you feel like you should be perfect at everything? Is your desire for a perfect outcome often stronger than you? Do you prefer to improve and perfect everything to the point of exhaustion? Then it might be time to pause for a moment and reflect on whether the pursuit of perfection is truly as perfect as you think. Perfectionism can gradually rob us of our lives. Nothing is good enough for us... neither for ourselves nor for others. Do we really want to live like a hamster running in its wheel? Wouldn't it be worth it to temporarily abandon our perfectionist efforts and take a step back to see how we live? Psychologist Sharon Martin's book offers a range of strategies that can help us step out of the endless chase for perfection. It includes numerous real-life examples, prompts for reflection, scales to assess our own perfectionism, and, most importantly, inspiration and support for changing our lives. The author has also included exercises based on the concept of mindfulness. The book will be appreciated by those struggling with perfectionism and therapists.
