Never be a perfectionist. I am one and it kills me inside. 99% of the time I am not happy with what I did because I know I can do better. Especially on exams. Not because of the grade but because I am not on par with what I know I can do. Its pissing me of so fucking much. Fucking bullshit. Why do I suck so fuckibg much ffs. For real: you should never become a perfectionist because I see what it does to me

    Same here. I have only been lastingly happy about one or two things I've done in the last 4 years. When I was at uni I got 100% on a Web API project - I still wasn't happy with it.

    Is the problem with being a perfectionist really the variable(s) you choose to optimize? If you strive to achieve 100% happiness, isn't that perfectionism?
