I know, we all want perfection and want so badly to think that it can somehow exist permanently. Unfortunately, as change is constant, it does not and can never exist in a permanent way. I also know that my article title sounds extreme, but really it relieves people of extreme concepts that are not necessary, especially when you think of the reality I am putting forth in this article. The reason this article is under the category "anger management" is simple, trying to achieve the unachievable is genuinely frustrating for starters. Not only that, but when you consider the concept of perfection I am going to put forth, you will be relieved that I am putting down or assassinating that concept as a whole by writing in a realistically derogatory way about it.
The trying to achieve permanent perfection or an ideal that is perfect without any flaws in a permanent way in this world or in any genuinely objectively realistic working realm is folly. I am not saying that consistent greatness is folly in any way, I am writing about that impossible state of mystical perfection that knows not any flaws permanently which does not exist in reality in an obvious way. But it seems desirable to all who have a concept of this sort of ideal or perfection. By the very definition, it is unrealistic and should be let go, but the concept is there especially when things go wrong and "imperfect" or "off course" temporarily. This is where the anger management concept comes in. Instead of getting angry at the "imperfection", embrace it and get back on course in a natural, freely flowing way. That is the best way to deal with imperfection, instead of having a fear of it. Simply get back on course when it happens instead of giving up and going totally off the "deep end" and saying "impossible". For, it is a case of going from point "A" to point "B", and what happens in between even if perfect or imperfect as long as the journey works right or correctly and you get where you want or need to genuinely go. In short, anger only happens when you genuinely give up or destroy yourself because of a perception of imperfection and not actual imperfection or inability to get where you want or need to go. Also, I would like to end with an old saying, "travel plans and flight plans are never exactly perfect, only the destination when you get there is even close to perfect."
