Expecting Perfection

As an extension of the last point, counting on perfection usually leaves us sorely disappointed. Perfection doesn’t exist, and trying to live within these parameters will surely leave you chronically stressed, unhappy, and bitter. Having unrealistic expectations of people and life, in general, doesn’t normally end well because mistakes happen. The sooner you can accept this, the less stressed and anxious you will feel.

Instead of attempting to control everything and set impossible standards for yourself and others, simply do the best you can, accept everyone else’s best effort, and choose to see the beauty in the imperfections.
