Seeking perfection

I admit I have a problem: I’m a perfectionist.

Merely writing this post, or shall I say, deblitating over each and every word and sentence structure, is my problem in action.

Yet, is it a problem? Is seeking perfection a problem?

I don’t know.

The reason that compels me to write this post is a recent “test” I had to take. Having revised and reviewed consistently over a period of time, I was sure it would be a breeze, and yet, I had the misfortune to overlook a couple of sheets of notes that could cost me dearly in terms of marks.

I tend to be a bit too hard on myself, and I suppose brooding over what happened is unnecessary.

I overlooked notes this time round. That won’t happen again.
