How to live with perfectionist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not easy: You may have to be the one to modify your behavior and perfectionism is deep seated and hard to lessen. You might see the play "the odd couple" - also a movie, - to see perfectionism at work. Perfectionists can accomplish much so while it gets in the way at times, it can also lead to breakthroughs and excellent work.
