Perfectionists

These are the kind of people who fear failure and dwell on the mistakes. Being concerned with their idea of perfection, they have trouble dropping the worry about tedious details. 

​

Perfectionists often feel like that they can never be good enough. This usually leads to degrading thoughts and never being satisfied. There is the constant expectation to be the best and if that doesn't happen the person feels worthless. Having this mindset can be mentally draining making them tired a lot of the time. For perfectionists some tasks may take longer to do than the standard amount of time because of their constant reassessing and fixing. First and perfect means a lot to these people second won't cut it and an A- on an assignment won't cut it either because it's not perfect.

​

To sum it up, Perfectionists are very hard on themselves and want/need to be the very best. They look into the nitty gritty details and how they can make it the absolute best. "Perfect or nothing at all" mindset.
