We are sometimes unaware that we are in a perfectionist zone. You set excessively high personal standards, are overly critical of yourself, battle the sense of not being enough, have imposter syndrome, procrastinate because you want to get it perfect while setting unrealistic expectations, and constantly move the goalpost.
