"Perfectionism is the belief that if we live perfect, look perfect, and act perfect, we can minimize or avoid the pain of blame, judgment, and shame. It’s a shield. Perfectionism is a twenty-ton shield that we lug around thinking it will protect us when, in fact; it’s the thing that’s really preventing us from taking flight…at its core, is about trying to earn approval and acceptance."
