It is a loop–an obsessive, debilitating, closed system that causes you to get stuck in the details of what you are writing or painting or making and to lose sight of the whole...⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ 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. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ No. We should not.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ …A book is never finished.
