Happy Friday,
Perfectionism is one of the biggest causes of anxiety. But it also has a bright side. Listen to the radio interview below to learn more (and some thoughts on the ups and downs of NFL teams).
And then I have a fun one for you ... the opposite of perfection! My blooper reel from the Psychology of Performance series.

Benefits of Perfectionism
Listen as I join Steven Prawdzik on The Sports Project Radio Show to talk performance slumps in the NFL and how perfectionism can help you.
Listen and find out:
How the Buffalo Bills responded to the humbling loss in Jacksonville to dominate the Jets a week later
How to stop overgeneralizing your mistakes and focus on your execution in each game, on each play
How underdogs win and upset the favored opponent
Why perfectionism gives performers an advantage
Why you don’t want to tell a perfectionist “mistakes are ok” (because they aren’t)
How to be “the perfect perfectionist” and avoid anxiety and burnout
... and if perfectionism is interfering with your game, I can help with individual consulting here: https://dreddieoconnor.com/telehealth-services/
