Eight of Pentacles | Ethony 2022

Sometimes, attention to detail becomes a poisonous perfectionism. When a person becomes a perfectionist, the world becomes a self-controlled bubble where change is unwelcome. Yet, we are often not in control of all the rules, and so when one changes, perfectionists have a difficult time handling this new element. You need to learn how to take risks, shift gears, reverse or move forward. Don’t let your perfectionism become a barrier.

Sometimes, you have to throw the towel on a project that isn’t leading to the desired outcome. If your effort isn’t creating a tangible result, then you are merely wasting your time. Work on things that create opportunity. Don’t be afraid to see the bigger picture. Leave edges slightly frayed. Each of those strings can lead you to a new path.
