Synopsis
* Do you feel that no matter how hard you try it is never good enough? * Do you spend too much time trying to get things exactly right in order to avoid criticism? * Does it seem that at any minute people will find out that you are not really what you seem to be? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may be struggling with perfectionistic tendencies. They can serve a positive purpose in your life. But having extremely high standards for yourself and others can leave you feeling let down -- over and over again -- when these expectations aren't met. As psychologist and researcher Monica Ramirez Basco explains, uncontrolled perfectionism can lead to depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, fear of failure, and broken marriages and friendships. In Never Good Enough Dr. Basco helps you understand why you feel driven to get things "just right" and shows you how to make the best of your perfectionism. Filled with practical advice, encouragement, and strategies for self-discovery, this invaluable guide includes Dr. Basco's own thirty-question self-test that will help you recognize and manage the negative side of your perfectionism. You will learn how to stop the struggle with yourself and others, how to evaluate your worth and performance in life, and how to replace the pursuit of perfection with peace of mind., * Do you feel that no matter how hard you try it is never good enough?* Do you spend too much time trying to get things exactly right in order to avoid criticism?* Does it seem that at any minute people will find out that you are not really what you seem to be?If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may be struggling with perfectionistic tendencies.

- l***y (0)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseShipping was faster than expected. The description was perfect. The packaging inside the box could have been wrapped in protective paper, the exterior of the box was beat up I believe that was a fed ex issue. The value of the bear was perfect. Years ago my grandmother paid 300 something for the bear and gave it to me. Mine was taken from me by a very cruel family member out of jealousy. I didn’t think I would ever find another and if I did I couldn’t afford it. My heart is full! Thank You.
- r***a (235)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchase"The MOON" book that i purchased last week arrived today. And what a nice surprise it turned out to be! It got here really quick, it was priced low, the shipping was very reasonable, it was packed with care AND it's in excellent condition. Someone REALLY took good care of this book all these years and it shows. So, i can definitely recommend doing business with this seller. This is as good as it gets. Period.
