Perfectionism is a bad thing.

So I guess I realized how much of a perfectionist I was when my director called me and I was sick in bed and he said, "you should really be at the end of the year meeting." I almost got up, got dressed and drove to South LA, just because I felt bad. Guilt can be a bad motivator--I think it causes us to over extend ourselves. Not that I would be super overextending myself to go to the year end meeting, but I would probably be paying for it the next day at work. And probably the whole weekend.

I think I need a more realistic expectation of myself. Otherwise, i honestly believe I might keel over soon.
