perfectionism
My dad used to say that smart people learn from their mistakes, and really smart people learn from the mistakes of others. He also used to say that it's ok to make mistakes, as long as you don't make the same mistake twice. ( Who are really smart people? )

I struggle with perfectionism too, which is really just a form of pride (or at least a by-product of it). I've had to eat a lot of humble pie to even get to the point of confronting this sin.
I'm currently in a fog of melancholy, which is a result of being quite humbled. This post reminds me that I need to turn my grief into learning, to let God develop within me a better, more godly character, through this time of being humbled.
Your wise words are a great encouragement to me ~ thanks!
