Key take away
Behavioural experiments can help you understand and challenge unhelpful beliefs, feelings and behaviours. The results will give you personalized; meaningful information about your perfectionist beliefs and behaviours, and help you live a more balanced, happier life.
All or nothing thinking involves seeing yourself in extremes (either good or bad, either success or failure) with no grey area/middle ground. This can be overcome by doing behavioural experiments and using continuums.
You can be more flexible by replacing rules with guidelines and doing things less than perfectly, which gives you a sense of balance and freedom.
THANK YOU
We really hope for you to continue trying out the behavioural experiments and see its impact on your life!
Now that you’ve finished this module, don’t forget to complete the perfectionism questionnaire you downloaded at the end of Module 1 to help you track your improvements.
