Spot On


There are three main types of perfectionism: self perfectionism – where you expect perfection from yourself; social perfectionism – where you believe others expect you to be perfect; and other perfectionism – where you expect others to be perfect. All three examples can be happiness busters. Being perfect is an unrealistic goal for you to place on yourself or others. Constantly falling short of the unattainable will continuously keep you blue.

I am terribly sorry, I think I just had too much time on my hands...astaghfirullah. 

But I kept promise to myself to write, hence I am :)

The above quote is somewhat relatable to most of us.

What makes me think most is that, how we as muslim/ah align perfectionism parallel with our core values in Islam (if that ever make sense) ?

And of course, what makes perfectionism as hindrance for happiness ?

Does perfectionism only exist once we're in Jannah ?

Questions to ponder...
