There is a time and a place for perfection, but it might not be as often as you think. The Pareto Principle (also known as the 80/20 rule) suggests that you can usually get near-perfect outcomes with much less effort. Join Kate Koala and Austin Alpaca as they face an impossible task under a time crunch and have to make the hard choice to not let their ambition for “perfect” get in the way of “good enough.”
This motivational reading book teaches children AND adults how to: Work smart and not hard Prioritize and stay focus on the most important things Get great outcomes without burnout Overcome unhealthy perfectionism
For the nerds, the research behind the theme: The Pareto Principle can help manage perfectionism. Studies show that strong trends of perfectionism, particularly in young people, have been increasing over time driven by the higher expectations that people place on themselves and others (Curran, Hill, 2017). Though it’s sometimes beneficial, perfectionism can correlate heavily with self-esteem and other psychological difficulties at all ages (Moon, Stoeber, 2007) and can result in career burnout (Chang, Chou, Liou, Tu 2016).
