Perfectionist vs. Seeking Perfection

OK YOU KNOW ME: Perfectionist.

Elder Gong helped me realize the difference.



Perfectionist:
This includes looking inside and focusing on bettering yourself only. It comes with disappointments because really none of us are perfect.

Seeking Perfection:
This includes looking to serve others and helping others. This is seeking hope through our Savior Jesus Christ. We know that we can be perfected in him. We have hope.

Seek perfection in Charity.

Seek perfection in Love.

Seek perfection in Kindness.

Seek perfection in Faith.

D&C 132: 24-25.
