Perfectionism Is Slow Death.

By Approaching My Problems With "what Might Make Things A Little Better?" Rather Than "what Is The Solution?" I Avoid Setting Myself Up For Certain Frustration. My Experience Has Shown Me That I Am Not Going To Solve Anything In One Stroke; At Best I Am Only Going To Chip Away At It.

When Someone Disagrees With Me, I Do Not Have To Immediately Start Revising What I Just Said. People Don't Want Me To Always Agree With Them. They Can Sense This Is Phony. They Can Sense I Am Trying To Control Them: I Am Agreeing With Them To Make Them Like Me. They Feel; "i Don't Want To Exist To Like You. I Don't Exist To Like You."

There Is A Time To Let Things Happen And A Time To Make Things Happen.

Before, I Thought I Was Actually Fighting For My Own Self-worth; That Is Why I So Desperately Wanted People To Like Me. I Thought Their Liking Me Was A Comment On Me, But It Was A Comment On Them.

Because The Results Are Unpredictable, No Effort Of Mine Is Doomed To Failure.
