“The relentless pursuit of perfection reveals a lack of self-esteem, serving as a distraction to avoid facing our true internal challenges and preventing a realistic and compassionate assessment of ourselves. This strategy deters us from setting achievable goals that would allow us to create the best vision of ourselves. This quest turns into an unproductive cycle of external validation, amplifying our dissatisfaction and the feeling of never being good enough, thereby reducing our self-esteem.” Self EsteemAchievementPerfection Book:Words of the Shaman: 50 Quotes from Paching Hoé Lambaiho Source: Words of the Shaman: 50 Quotes from Paching Hoé Lambaiho
