The fastest way to break the cycle of perfectionism and become a fearless mother is to give up the idea of doing it perfectly - indeed to embrace uncertainty and imperfection.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Perfectionism is not a quest for the best. It is a pursuit of the worst in ourselves, the part that tells us that nothing we do will ever be good enough - that we should try again.
Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it.
The pursuit of perfection often impedes improvement.
However, don't let perfectionism become an excuse for never getting started.
Pursuit of perfection is futile. Instead, I prioritize and often realize goals or tasks I've been aiming for just aren't that important.
I'm a perfectionist. I won't do a thing without trying to do it well.
In this fallen world, I suspect we will never achieve perfection. But that won't stop me trying.
Aim at perfection in everything, though in most things it is unattainable. However, they who aim at it, and persevere, will come much nearer to it than those whose laziness and despondency make them give it up as unattainable.
Perfectionists demand perfection from themselves first and foremost.
I'm in pursuit of what cannot be achieved: perfection.
