ABOUT THE TOPIC
Don't harp too much on perfectionism. Perfectionism can make you neurotic. Whatever you do, do it wholly, totally. Then automatically, you will never worry about perfectionism. Perfectionism is always something from your mind. It becomes a goal for you. You work towards it as a goal. And when you work towards it as a goal, it becomes dead and mundane.
OBJECTIVES

¤ When will you not worry about
perfectionism?
¤ Which is always from your
mind?
¤ Can we make mistakes?
¤ What happens when we are
scared to make mistakes?

INTRODUCTION:
Teach the children that there is nothing wrong with making mistakes
GOALS:
To make the children understand totality.
CLICK OF THE TOPIC:
Don't make the same mistakes again
ABOUT THE TOPIC:
There is nothing wrong in making mistakes. In fact, by making a few mistakes, you come to know clearly how to avoid making mistakes. The more you learn from mistakes, the more you know about how not to make mistakes. Knowing how not to make mistakes is a very important thing. Only then you have seen both sides of it; only then you have explored the two sides experientially. Else, there is always the danger of falling into the unknown side at a critical time when you really can't afford to. The moment you are worried that it might be a mistake, you are worried about your ego getting hurt. When you are not so concerned about your ego getting hurt, you will have the courage to take any jump. All your so-called worry is actually about your ego getting hurt. When you are free from it, you will act with more freedom and courage. You will be more willing to experiment.
OBJECTIVES
❖ When can we can avoid mistakes?
❖ Can we learn something from mistakes?
❖ Can we make the same mistakes again and again?
❖ What happens when you are worried?
❖ When we will have the courage to take any jump?
