Society continually broadcasts the need to want more, and to be perfect. Gathering a wide range of contemporary evidence, Curran calls for both introspection and broader, societal change. He shows what we can do as individuals to resist the modern-day pressure to be perfect, and in so doing, win for ourselves a more purposeful and contented life. 650 0 $a Perfectionism (Personality trait) 650 0 $a Burn out (Psychology) 650 0 $a Self-actualization (Psychology) 650 0 $a Mental health. 650 0 $a Self-help techniques. 655 7 $a Self-help publications. $2 lcgft 941 $a 11 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240702025820.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509011552.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20240412010913.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20240316010543.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240125011018.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20240111055922.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20231005012407.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20231005010147.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20231004010145.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20230902013021.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230902012419.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7F0DC10C495811EE9228709642ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
