0:00
type one is known as the perfectionist
0:02
or the reformer uh this person is
0:05
characterized by principled Nature a
0:08
responsibility and kind of a Pursuit for
0:10
Perfection now I want to make sure that
0:13
all of you understand that one there is
0:15
no such thing as Perfection and when
0:17
Perfection is is driving it's actually a
0:20
bit of a shame shield and so we want to
0:23
make sure we understand that the
0:25
reformer might be a better way to call
0:27
this type so healthy aspect of a typee
0:30
one or a reformer uh include Integrity
0:34
they possess a strong sense of Integrity
0:36
moral values they adhere to principles
0:38
and honesty fairness and Justice in
0:40
their actions and in their decisions it
0:42
guides them in making ethical choices
0:45
and helps them to uphold their beliefs
0:48
so some traits that are common for
0:50
someone with a one or a reformer is
0:52
their commitment to Excellence they
0:54
demonstrate a commitment to Excellence
0:55
in all areas of their life they strive
0:58
to achieve high standards of per
0:59
performance and and quality in their
1:01
work and in their relationships as well
1:04
as in their personal Endeavors this can
1:06
be reflected in their dedication to
1:08
self-improvement and growth they have
1:10
desire for positive change they
1:12
genuinely want to make positive
1:14
contributions to society and affect
1:16
meaningful change in the world they're
1:19
they're driven by a sense of Duty and
1:20
responsibility towards others and they
1:23
have a vision of creating a better
1:24
future for themselves and for future
1:26
Generations so someone who's a reformer
1:29
when they're operating from an unhealthy
1:31
mindset they might experience some
1:34
rigidity they might be overly rigid for
1:37
kind of dogmatic beliefs and behaviors
1:39
and they're they perhaps can be really
1:41
strict with their own standards or
1:43
expectations and impose them on others
1:46
which can lead to conflict or resistance
1:48
from people who feel constrained or
1:49
judged by their inflexibility uh they
1:52
can be critically uh critical or
1:53
judgmental so they might engage in harsh
1:56
self-criticism and judgment uh
1:58
judgmental attitudes towards both self
2:01
and others they hold themselves to such
2:03
a high um expectation and often
2:06
unrealistic standards of that Perfection
2:09
uh for others and then it leaves them
2:10
feeling disappointed or resentful when
2:13
their expectations aren't met and this
2:15
can erode self-esteem and it can strain
2:18
relationships living like this can
2:19
create a lot of anxiety and stress and
2:22
create undo disturbance in their nervous
2:25
systems because of their own standards
2:27
of excellence and need to fulfill
2:29
obligations and responsibilities it can
2:31
lead to overwhelm and burnout and and
2:34
exhaustion so there's challenges with
2:36
the rigidity um and the critical
2:38
judgment because it can lead to that
2:40
perfectionism which is like I said
2:42
before a shame shield and when we're in
2:44
perfectionism we aren't able to have um
2:48
you know satisfaction or joy in our
2:50
achievements because we're always
2:51
thinking what's next what's next so
2:53
there's a lot of underlying inadequacy
2:55
or failure that can come up with that
2:57
perfectionism someone in unhealthy Minds
3:00
set can have control issues exhibiting
3:02
behaviors of micromanagement or um
3:05
wanting to have order and conformity in
3:07
their environment and they can be
3:08
resistant of change or deviation from
3:10
plans and have some inflexibility this
3:13
can lead to mistrust in collaborative
3:15
experiences with others so um it can
3:18
also create self-doubt uh when they
3:20
grapple with self-doubt and insecurity
3:22
about Worth or capabilities then they
3:23
might be seeking validation or
3:25
reassurance from external sources to
3:28
validate their sense of okayness or wor
3:29
or confidence and this can create a
3:31
cycle of anxiety and and more internal
3:34
self-criticism so in order to to
3:37
cultivate a greater sense of compassion
3:39
for this personality type uh they could
3:41
benefit from self-reflection regular
3:44
introspection examining beliefs and
3:46
values and Discerning whether they're
3:48
serving their well-being or contributing
3:49
to feelings of rigidity or
3:51
self-criticism allowing for more
3:53
flexibility mindfulness practices are
3:56
great for someone who's struggling with
3:58
this because they can learn to have a
4:00
sense of less um internal judgment and
4:03
um letting go of expectations and
4:06
recognizing a sense of inner calm
4:08
healthy boundaries are really important
4:09
to establish to create some balance for
4:12
someone struggling with this because uh
4:14
recognizing your own needs and
4:16
limitations while also respecting
4:18
autonomy and boundaries of others helps
4:20
to improve relationships so some things
4:23
to keep in mind for uh someone who's a
4:25
reformer or perfectionist is have clear
4:27
communication regarding expectations and
4:30
standards to to relate with them a
4:32
supportive environment where they feel
4:34
valued for their efforts and maybe lots
4:36
of words of affirmation to give them the
4:38
feedback that what they're doing is is
4:40
working for you and constructive
4:42
feedback delivered in a respectful
4:43
manner because they value honesty and
4:46
integrity in all of their interactions
