I don't aim for perfection but I always give my best in everything I do.
The biggest flaw in perfectionism is when you fall, you will fall hard. You will blame and critic yourself for your failure to fulfill perfectionism.
I know this because I was quite a perfectionist too. I used to rip myself apart after a project that I designed and produced didn't turn out as great as I expected due to unavoidable factors. My client then asked, "Did you give your best when you designed the project?"
I said yes.
"And that what matters. You gave your best effort in a limited time and I'm happy with the result. So you shouldn't feel bad for it." He replied.
You can break perfectionism. It's a choice. You can still aim to be the best without being perfect.
