Oh yes I've been working quite hard on perfectionism.

I've been fighting it forever. Being good or invisible was pretty much my chosen defense. If you can handle everything on your own (close to perfect), then you don't need to rely on unreliable people.

I've fought perfectionism in cleaning, orderliness, constructive criticism, work habits, and in relationships. Recently I realized that I may have cut other people some slack in relationships, but I really had not cut myself any slack. I was still expecting perfectionism in relationships from myself. Pretty funny actually.
