Perfectionism Defeated

40 pointsbreaking bad habits

Submit a project or assignment that is 'good enough' instead of obsessing over the final minor details.

How to complete Perfectionism Defeated

Perfectionism poses as high standards, but past a point you're just buffing details no one will ever notice while the deadline slips. Shipping at 'good enough' proves you can pick done over perfect and win back the hours that last sliver was eating.

  1. Define good enough up front: what does this actually need to do for whoever receives it?
  2. Set a hard stop time and treat it as the real deadline, not a polite suggestion.
  3. Do one pass for genuine errors, then refuse to start 'improving' things that already work.
  4. Hit submit before you can talk yourself into another round.

Tips

  • The 80/20 rule is literal here: the final 20% of polish costs the most and matters least.
  • Learn to tell fixing a real problem from soothing your own anxiety.

What counts as done

You submitted while still mildly itching to tweak it, and nothing bad happened.
