#007: Perfection and perfectionism - What do they really mean?
02/18/15 • 35 min
In this episode of theRhythm N' Groove Podcast, we talk about perfection and perfectionism and what they really mean. We share our thoughts and opinions about perfection and perfectionism and why they are not necessarily good things. Perfectionism can sometimes cripple you and stop you from achieving your goals, and even if you could achieve "perfection" when it comes to music, that perfection might make your music sound too boring and robotic. Imperfections are what make you and your music interesting to the audience! We encourage you to share your thoughts about perfection and perfectionism with us, or write in just to say hi. Send your emails us at [email protected]. We look forward to hearing from you!
