The advice we hear on perfectionism is always the same - let go of it! Forget it! Perfectionism is bad for you. But what if we've been looking at it all wrong? What if perfectionism is your superpower?

In The Perfectionist's Guide to Losing Control, psychotherapist Katherine Morgan Schafler says you don't have to stop being a perfectionist to be happy and fulfilled. Her smart, witty book is a new approach for women who are over the generic advice to 'find balance'.

Morgan Schafler's book identifies five distinct types of perfectionist - Classic, Parisian, Messy, Intense, and Procrastinating. As you identify your unique perfectionist profile, you'll learn how to manage each form of perfectionism to work for you, not against you. Beyond managing it, you'll learn how to embrace and even enjoy your perfectionism. Yes, enjoy!

With handy self-assessments and actionable advice tailored to the unique needs of each perfectionist type, The Perfectionist's Guide to Losing Control is the game-changing companion for women who dare to want more out of life. Bildung Persönliche Entwicklung Persönlicher Erfolg Stressmanagement

I learnt about this book listening to MOM’S DON’T HAVE TIME TO READ BOOKS. Hence, I ordered the audiobook first. Meanwhile, I have ordered the printed book, too. It is, without exaggeration, the most impressive book I have encountered yet. In beautiful, clear, superbly crafted prose, Schafler redefines perfectionists as people who want to bridge the gap between reality and their ideals with more dedication and passion than non-perfectionists. Then she teaches all five types of perfectionists how to let go of control and opt for empowerment instead, telling vivid stories about people who managed exactly that.

Extra bonus for listeners: Katherine Morgan Schafler is the Kiri Te Kanawa of readers. Her voice is as mellifluous as it is perfectly pitched. Not only does it unlock the plethora of meanings of each sentence, it also floods your ears with the constant and consistent undertone of a deep love of all things human. It is an irresistible invitation to soften your heart, open it, and work and pray powerfully instead of desperately for your ideals, knowing and feeling that you yourself are entitled to love, joy, dignity, freedom, and connection as is everybody else. You need not EARN that entitlement. It is your birthright.

Most important book I have ever read in the past 60 years
