PURRFEKT

Now that I’ve finished my summer course in Theology, and I’m beginning my fall spiritual formation class, it’s time to get back to making some entries here.

My learning contract for my class this fall is about my tendency towards perfectionism. I sure hope I do it right ;)

Seriously though, here are some questions I’d love your feedback on:

1) How has perfectionism served you?
2) What are the negative consequences you experience in your life by trying to be perfect?
3) What have you changed in this area that’s working better for you?
4) What’s the core belief of a perfectionist, especially as it relates to their relationship with God?

My goal is to become a man of simplicity, who accepts his strengths and weaknesses, and embraces his shadow of perfectionism.
