Obsession

[colmena]

I have this same problem. I only do things when I have to, and even then I never put my heart into them. But I fail to see what this has to do with obsession. You are obsessed with perfection...?

ob·ses·sion /əbˈsɛʃən/
–noun
1. the domination of one's thoughts or feelings by a persistent idea, image, desire, etc.

The persistent idea of not meeting my own standards has dominion over my thoughts. This prevents me from functioning rationally.

You are obsessed with perfection...?

Not perfection, my ideals. These ideals which exist within a frame of imperfection; my rationalised perspective on reality. My virtues and social competence have never caught up with my rationale. To improve this, I require some down-to-earth life experience. Which is exactly where I'm heading.

I've always been obsessive. I obsess about something until something else comes up, then obsess about that.

Story of my life. Nothing but one obsession to the next. My interests aren't ever half-ass.
