Do you need everything to be perfect? Say a project, or an assignment at work, do you spend a lot of time perfecting every little detail. Or at home, do you want everything to be neat and perfectly done? Do you stress yourself in getting things to be perfect? Can you not do away with an okay job?
I think I am a perfectionist in certain things. What about you? Tell us more...

Well, I don't think I am a perfectionist and I do not need everything to be perfect. But, of course, when I am doing something I'm interested, such as doing a project or assignment, I wish it can be a good and successful project. But after working for years, I realized that it's hard to get everything or anything perfect, as we always said, even Microsoft's products have bugs, so why do we strike for the perfectionism? We need to always consider other factors, of course, we always strike for good quality so that it can serve the users better and make their lives more convenient, but we shouldn't look for perfectionism, otherwise we'll be really struggling, also we may not be able to complete the project on time too.

Im not that so perfectionist. You know, Im satisfied with my performance but i get into the point that I need to improve but not that getting depressed you know.
I dont want to be a perfectionist because i think its hard to deal with perfectionists. They want everything to be perfect and smooth as well.
You know practice makes perfect, but no one is perfect, then why practice? :))

I am somewhat a perfectionist. I tend to procrastinate sometimes due to worry of things not being perfect. Honestly I'd like to be more easy going but I've always been like this even as a child.

Yes!I like to be perfect in all aspects.Even if I can't be perfect,I will try my level best to execute things in a perfect way.Sometimes the environment won't allow us to be as perfect as we think,But I will have the satisfaction that I give all the efforts to make it perfect.Cheers!

I am not a perfectionist, but I like most everything to be good and not bad. I am almost borderline perfectionist. But sometimes I want certain things to be perfect like you. I don't think being a halfway perfectionist is bad, but sometimes perfectionist are bossy, I try to be nice.

Perfectionist is a BIG WORD...
Hmmm let me see. Am I perfectionist?
Sometimes I do. Like for example in cleaning up my room. I want it to be very clean so that it will be comfortable.
But nobody is perfect as what they say....
God bless and Take care!!!
