Offers a hopeful beacon and a steady path for anyone struggling to find their footing in a world of impossible standards. --Daniel H. Pink, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Drive and The Power of Regret In the tradition of Bren Brown's bestseller The Gifts of Imperfection, this illuminating book by an acclaimed professor at the London School of Economics explores how the pursuit of perfection can become a dangerous obsession that leads to burnout and depression--keeping us from achieving our goals.Today, burnout and depression are at record levels, driven by a combination of intense workplace competition, oppressively ubiquitous social media encouraging comparisons with others, the quest for elite credentials, and helicopter parenting. Society continually broadcasts the need to want more, and to be perfect. Gathering a wide range of contemporary evidence, Curran offers a clear-eyed look at how perfectionism and its capitalistic 'obsession with boundless growth' has contributed to mass discontent and insecurity (Publishers Weekly). He shows what we can do as individuals to resist the modern-day pressure to be perfect, and in so doing, win for ourselves a more purposeful and contented life. Filled with many useful lessons and valuable insights.This book offers an alternative path to a fulfilling, productive life (Kirkus Reviews) and the relief of letting go to focus on what matters most.…
