Focusing on your own unique abilities and strengths

The question could be asked: are there beneficial gains to being a perfectionist? During my early years of competition I certainly believed so. I truly thought that if I put exceedingly high expectations on myself with very little room for error, and gave myself a bit of a hard time for performing below what I thought was possible, I would push myself to achieving more. If I could turn back the h ..read more
