Perfectionism: Helpful Asset Or Crippling Obstacle?
"Adaptive perfectionism" (the good kind) correlates with "striving for excellence, organizational skills, tendency to plan ahead and holding others to high standards"; "maladaptive perfectionism" with "concern over mistakes, need for approval, tendency to ruminate over past performances and perceived [external] pressure."
