  1. I'm a terrible perfectionist who often finds myself falling into a catastrophizing, black and white spiral when I make a mistake and let someone down, especially at work. A phrase I keep in my pocket now thanks to this video is "It's ok to make mistakes. No one can be perfect. My friends and coworkers trust me and value me. One mistake will not change that." Then I try to remember a mistake a coworker/friend made yesterday, last week, last month, last year. I never can. It really helps calm me down. Sometimes we all make mistakes and the important thing is to show we've learned from them. This video has helped me understand that the first step to stopping my negative thinking is to be prepared for when it happens.
