THE PERFECTIONIST`S HANDBOOK:TAKE RISKS, INVITE CRITICISM

Go for the gold. Achieve. Stand out. It's the American way to aim for perfection and excel in business, school, sports, and life. We're all trying to do more in less time and feeling overwhelmed as a result. But too many people in business are ineffecient, self-sabotaging perfectionists. If you spend three hours editing an annual report to get it 90% perfect, and then spend another two hours to get it 93% perfect, and another hour for 95% perfect, the incremental improvement is negligible. Think of the time and effort you can conserve and redistribute to other tasks. Unlike other negative advice given, to give up your perfectionism, The Perfectionist's Handbook challenges this mindset which makes it unique.
