Excellence in and of itself is a good thing, but it can do harm when you subconsciously misapply it to your life. You have to ask yourself a few important questions when it comes to excellence to prevent it from becoming the very thing holding you back from achieving the very thing you're pursuing.

Show Notes:

Ways we use excellence in unhealthy ways:

  • Cover up a subconscious expectation of performing for love.
  • Build a measuring stick into your life that you can never measure up to.
  • Cultivate a shame-based relationship with yourself and others.
  • Set an unrealistic expectation of perfectionism.
  • Use it to manage your fear of rejection.
  • Drives a wedge between two people in a relationship.
