My Journey Towards Partial Progress

I was born with a highly perfectionist personality. As I went through elementary school, I’d struggle at times with needing to just complete things versus making them absolutely perfect. Up until around seventh grade, I would fail to finish tests, but my teachers would recognize that the portions I had done were fully accurate. Over time, I’ve gotten better at completion, through my own efforts as well as those of my parents, teachers, counselors, friends, and other supporters. Yet being comfortable with partial progress is still something I struggle with in certain scenarios.
