Perfection?

Some questions are tough to answer!

Is perfection a bona fide goal? Is it attainable and sustainable? If one pursues perfection, does it help or hinder in the pursuit of long term goals? What does it mean to pursue perfection? Does chasing perfection suggest making no mistakes? Does that hinder growth progress and development and even success?

In sport, is an undefeated season considered perfection? Is it really, perfection? Were there not games, in which the team could have played better, even though they won?

“Perfectionism is self-destructive simply because there’s no such thing as perfect. Perfection is an unattainable goal.”–Brene Brown

Does the pursuit of perfection help to achieve greatness? Does the pursuit of perfection hinder the achievement of greatness? Can perfectionists succeed? Are there not times when perfection is required? Does the need for perfection in particular situations, indicate a need to pursue perfection as a mindset? Are there advantages to that perfectionist mindset? Are there disadvantages?

Are you a perfectionist? Do you want to be? Why? How does your view 0n perfectionism benefit you? Do you prefer consistent progress to chasing perfection?
