Perfectionism
So, I was thinking of this for a while. Reaching perfectionism, is there anything like that around! yeah, i guess its a word in everyone's mouth. How to seek Perfection, is what we read, see and hear from everyone, even media. And its quite hectic and domineering, cause it keeps us on the edge, and self evaluating. I guess at a certain age i was seeking that, cause i though it was so self-accomplished, and reaching satisfaction!
And I havent been wrong, right in the beginning i was feeling so energetic and self-righteous defending my own values on that. And i was so taken by the fact of competing to be one, and reaching the top and maintaining that. But I guess i wasnt that right when i reached midway the game, i felt very much tired. I was like competing with my own demons, my only job is to measure and ask myself million questions before reaching an end . And I was falling into self-pitty whenever i wanted a solution, maybe an end, or even an evaluation. It took me ages to decide, to dress and to speak! Perfection is something highly maintained by media, if we could say so, its the halo drawn on every public figure.It keeps you on the fence of being someone highly regarded, which never happens (in real terms).. In the end, we are only humans,we commit mistakes, we dont look our best, we trip, we get crabby, we are sinners, we are faultiers.. and the list goes on and on!
So, I took a route back, gone for meditation, yoga classes, over-indulging in self-help books to get rid of the notion, and it did actually helped easing out the stress. And I pondered alot, i took an easy getaway step by step of enjoying every bit, every minute. While going to work i would look with an easy-soft looking glimpses to everything around me. Enjoyed being alone,alot! Wrote too much, and maybe spoke to myself enough to reach for self-clarifcation!
I realized that, whatever it takes to be perfect, you're only struggling through your way toward imperfection. Its just an ongoing headache of being someone not you, but for others. Being elite, when you can be you.
P.S : Be you, its much easier, and more appealing!!
