Remember, you can hear my radio program daily on Sirius XM Triumph and connect with me 24-7

at Dr.ora.com. I want to talk about perfectionism because I'm probably going to give you a spin on

this that you're not used to because perfectionism is one of those words that, that's a bad thing.

That's a bad thing to be perfectionist.

That's not true. I am a perfectionist. There's a difference, though, between being a perfectionist,

which means you have great pride and intent that if you do something, you're going to put everything

you're going to work on it till it's right. I mean, I've been places and done things where people

have said, eh, that's good enough. Or nobody's going to notice that. And I look at them like

they're a squashed bug. I go, well, that may be good enough and nobody will notice it for you, but I will know. So, no, I have to do this again. That takes a long time. You really, you're just a perfectionist. And I go, you're right. But there's a difference between being a perfectionist and being a pathological perfectionist. I have a little

tingees here and there of pathological perfectionism, and I'll tell you where those are,

but for the most part, I'm a very healthy, proud, card-carrying perfectionist, and I think you all

ought to be. That's a different spin because

that word is usually it's a bad thing no it's an absolutely great thing what's a pathological

perfectionist that's somebody who says I'm never good enough. I suck.

Now, I've been heard to say that

when I'm shooting pool and I miss a shot,

I think I ought to have gotten.

And then I have to remind myself
