Perfection Is An Illusion.

Perfection is an illusion because it’s a never-ending pursuit to appear a certain type of way (godlike), which is impossible to attain as it will end up becoming an everlasting and ceaseless cycle of disappointment and self-criticism.

When we strive to be perfect, we become overly critical of ourselves and others. We may even end up becoming jealous or resentful of those who we think already seemed to have achieved perfection, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem, indirectly setting ourselves up for fall.
