Re-evaluating the Importance of Achieving
Overview
This CBT handout from the Centre for Clinical Interventions explains how perfectionists often base their self-worth exclusively on achievement, leading to stress and diminished satisfaction. It suggests broadening interests and engaging in activities regardless of initial motivation to create a more balanced self-evaluation. The resource is designed for clients seeking to understand and adjust this cognitive pattern.
