Many of us struggle with the desire to be perfect. Did you know that the definition of perfection is actually "to finish"? Do you find yourself being concerned with the right clothes, the perfect temperature, eating the right amount, doing things the right way, or other desires that make things "just right"? If so, you are creating unnecessary stress for yourself by putting limitations on everything you do. You are feeling stressed because the idea of perfection is just an illusion. Allow yourself to put limitations on the things that you don't want and be ready to receive everything else. See mistakes as blessings and they will be. Velcro, post-it notes, and the frisbee are all mistakes that worked. The only thing that is constant in life is change... if you resist it, you will have problems. The chocolate pretzels you eat before bed are perfect for that moment. You don't have to make the same choices all the time like your perfection would have you think.
The only thing that is truly perfect is what already is in existence. If you resist what is and want it to be different you will be stuck with limitations. If you accept what is and focus on what you want then you will work towards your goals. Life will become limitless.
