Everyone wants to be perfect
Whoever it is, as long as they are still human, they have the right to have the desire to be perfect. Humans have a selfish nature that is quite one of their identities as the highest-ranking creatures among other creatures, because they have reason and emotions. So, every human being definitely wants to be perfect.
However, the word 'want' becomes very dangerous if it is self-injurious. It would be very scary if it hurts themselves and others, mentally or physically. Not when desire turns into an unlimited obsession. Defeating logic and reason, emotions are greater than reality. However, that does not mean that desire should not be realized, there is another meaning than that.
As long as the obsession can produce good results for yourself and others, of course the main thing is self-improvement, it will be better and much better. For example, I used to have bad habits. Very bad. Even more than that, destroying my own body because I was very greedy and could not control myself about what I ate, until finally, damn, I was injured and had diabetes. It was my lowest point, feeling like I had a bad body shape, to the point of weighing 85 kg with a height of 159 cm.
I couldn't control my emotions, of course, the carbohydrates and fats in my body were very evil and destroyed the metabolism in my body that used to be able to control it. But unfortunately, I became very unstable, especially mentally because I felt insecure about my body shape and diabetes.
Believe it or not, I felt my body was very messy, I almost cried every night and made me even greedier. I became a lazy person, I couldn't even live my days very productively. I became the worst person at that time. Until finally I found something that became a turning point in my life journey again.
I exercised, starting with walking every morning, almost every morning for a week, I did it non-stop for 3 months. Of course, I could lose weight, however, I felt very frustrated because of the significant weight loss and made some skin folds left over from the decrease in fat levels. However, I was confused about what to do, besides my hair also started to fall out badly.
The desire to be better made me think again about the meaning of exercise, looking for a new sport that was right for my body. Finally I dared to come to a gym near my house. Not long after, I learned a lot from several people at the gym and it gave me a lot of new insights into the meaning of exercise.
I started to be able to do weight training very well, even the fat percentage decreased and the muscles in my body increased. Now, I look better. Even more than that, my emotions have calmed down due to being channeled from regular exercise and sports, so there is no word 'stress' and 'emotional effect' because it has been vented well thanks to training at the gym.
See you the next time hive friends!

Hey, Everyone.
I am Aswita, a housewife who really wants to create works from writing. It might be a little strange, but, I really like telling stories even if it's just a daily journal. I want to be friends with you, sometimes we can greet each other in the comments column. This world is very small if we don't greet each other. I hope you like my writing and so do I. I’m very enthusiastic about foodies, traveling, books, movies and many other things that always circle my brain.

Being obsessed with something is okay, but it has to be realistic!
