While this may seem ironic, procrastination is a recurring issue for some perfectionists. I’ve found that it seems to affect some more than others — for example, my pain point as a perfectionist isn’t really procrastination, but something else as you’ll know later in the article — but it is a big issue for some. I’ve worked with clients who are chronic perfectionists, and some would heavily procrastinate on their own goals, even though these are goals they feel passionately about.
