interesting topic buffie ,In my opinion giving ur best shot is much more better than trying to attain perfection . Moreover every persons perspective of perfection may be different . It always happen that the person who thinks he is perfect may be full of flaws for the other.

Sometimes When u try to attain perfection, u generally miss out on the bigger picture like some one else said . I also beleive that not all prefectionists are the best coz each one looks at it and measures perfectness from their yardstick whcih may differ from person to person . While one person finds the person who is well maintained as perfect , the other may have a different yardstick and hence wouldnt find the same person perfect and the best .

Its the same with reality shows , what one sees as perfect may not be the same for another as their yardstick for measuring perfection is different .

I guess my post might look repetitive but honestly Thats what i think , that it differs from person to person as each individuals yardstick to judge a person may be different.

I remember this discussion in JDJ when I joined the forum. I think both of us argued in favour of Shveta Salve being perfect and someone retaliated saying 'perfect is not always best'.

In my opinion if a person has attained perfection in what he does then he is the best. If he has conquered the highest standards then he can't be any less that the best.

Now coming to perils in being perfect. Is perfection always the best?

Not always. No, I am not contradicting myself. Perfectionists are way too competitive which puts them in high stress category. Such people might not be able to take a failure in its stride. They always try to put themselves at the highest level and try hard to be flawless in front of others. This could be quite stressful to them and high chances of them turning into a weak and emotional person. The most recent examples could be Shveta Salve in JDJ and Bhaktyaar in Nach Baliye.

I agree with Abhijeet and Tina. Sometimes perfection can be synonymous to procrastination. How many times have you heard a person say (including myself 😆 ) - no, I haven't yet finished; you see, I'm a perfectionist...!!! And often that is just an excuse for procrastination. 😊

Perfection is what we want it to be. Even if it is imperfect.

I think slightly messy hair on me is perfect. Others will not think so. They will call it "imperfect". Their idea of perfect is different than mine.

Perfection is something designed to satisfy our individual and emotional desires, so there can be no universally perfect object, person, or idea that will satisfy everyone.

We all are perfectionists in the sense that we all find things that are perfect to us, but not everyone else.

absolutely no one is perfect. there's always an "ultimate person" in everyone's head, and we all strive to be our own "ultimate person". as monica said, everyone has a different definition of "perfect".

as far as the question of 'perfect being the best' goes, i don't think there's any such thing as perfection, but doing your best is the closest you can get to it 😊

well to me,
while perfection is good,
there is no such thing as "perfection"..there is always scope for improvement.. there is always scope for improving on your previous performance..

It is always good to give your best shot and be happy with it...

To me Perfection isn't the Best becuase as someone gave an example of Sonu Nigam being the prefect singer but Best singer someone else.

I think to be the BEST one needs to have the "X FACTOR". Also, I believe that perfection at times is boring. In Simi Garewal's show, She said to Hirithik if there was a PERFECT apple and an ORIGINAL apple, which would you choose and he siad ofcourse the ORIGINAL one coz it's original. Being perfect doesn't make you or your work the best.

To be the best, one needs to work hard and give THEIR best shot. One should compete with themselves and not with others in order to be THE BEST.

Take Ashwariya and Sushmita, for example, Aishwariya is PERFECT but Sushmita has that "X FACTOR" which makes her stand out in the crowd. Even though Ash is extremely beautiful but when you see Sush in the same place, you look more at Sush than at Ash. I'm NOT at all comparing or degrading any of the actors or thier fans, I just used it as an example😳.

I'm all confused now, will be back later, if I remember😳.

Just remembered one thing you mentioned, which I disagree with. If I don't like someone or something doesn't mean it's the "sour grapes" case. If someone doesn't like a work done prefectly, doesn't mean they are jealous of others' work.

Just my opinon😳

"Insanity - Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."

Perfection is vital in competitions and contests but in in practical life it creates a pause in enjoying life and moving forward. It can also turn into Obssesive Compulsive Disorder. One cannot be perfect every time and to balance everything in life is perfection Imho.
