The Evil Twins of Productivity: Perfectionism & Procrastination
Description
What’s the difference between a perfectionist and a procrastinator? Trick question — sometimes, there isn’t one. One delays because it’s “not perfect yet,” the other delays because “there’s still time.” Either way, nothing gets done.
In this episode of Help, We Started a Podcast!, we dive into the messy overlap where perfectionism becomes procrastination, and procrastination pretends to be perfectionism. We’ll break down the excuses we all sellourselves (“I’m just planning,” “I’ll know when the time is right,” “I work better under pressure”), share the very real psychology behind why we stall, and maybe roast ourselves along the way.
If you’ve ever found yourself endlessly tweaking, over-preparing, or waiting for the perfect moment that never arrives… congrats, this one’s for you.
