A great inspirational quote...

Thought I'd share this...my therapist gaave it to me a while back, as encouragemnt to ditch the perfectionism and OCD that drives an ED:

"Let us not forget that our preparation is directed toward EXCELLENCE, not PERFECTION--because in our efforts to be perfect, we'll discover that there is no room for forgiveness, latitude, or patience. Since we are not perfect, our pursuit of excellence allows us to grow, to learn from our inevitabel mistakes. Striving for perfection fills us with doubts and pressures us with the fear of failure, while striving for excellence opens the door for us to TAKE RISKS, to be enlightened, and thus excel."

Just a little mental ammunition for the fight :)
