Reducing the Stress of Perfectionism

Perfectionism has a way of robbing us of that glow of achievement and ultimately making us miserable. Having high standards is good but not if they make everything in life so challenging that we are exhausted before we have even started!

If you find that you are never really satisfied with your achievements, spend a lot of time procrastinating rather than working and are increasingly self-critical, then this could be the workshop for you.

You will learn:

• About the psychology of the perfectionist
• how perfectionism becomes self-defeating.
• ways of challenging the rigid perfectionist mindset

Where and when?

The workshops are open to students and are held each semester in the training room at the AGLC. You can book or simply turn up on the day. Visit our Workshops page to find out when the next workshop is scheduled.
