Alarmingly, perfectionism in American, Canadian, and British college students rose by 32% between 1989 and 2016 alone. For many, these habits start even younger. Yet for adults and children alike, the drive to “be perfect” comes at a price, including low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and even life-threatening physical ailments. No one knows this better than self-professed perfectionist JULIAN REEVE, whose high standards propelled him to the top 1% of his industry as music director of the Broadway hit Hamilton—and triggered a heart attack shortly after.
