CHICAGO - s4story -- Today, Inspirebytes Omni Media announces the release of The Perfection Paradox. Originally published in Dutch, it is written by Netherlands-based organizational psychologist Marjon Bohré-den Harder, a student and colleague of Dr. Brené Brown. This exciting self-help book is now available to English-speaking audiences for the first time. Although many may view perfectionism as a positive trait, it can actually lead to burnout, procrastination, and dissatisfaction on both organizational and individual levels. This is the perfection paradox, wherein the endless pursuit of perfection ultimately leads to a worse outcome. Using empirical evidence and actionable exercises, The Perfection Paradox invites readers to question whether perfectionism really benefits anyone, ultimately leading us to find a healthier balance in our personal and professional lives.

"I hope people who read the book will understand that there is no such thing as healthy perfectionism," Bohré-den Harder says. "Perfectionism will burn you out, will prevent you from learning and growing, and more than that, it does not make you an interesting or relatable human being. The best thing you can give yourself and the world is being you—all of you. Your ambition, your strivings, AND your humanness, flaws and insecurities included. That is how we make for a better world together."

The Perfection Paradox is available now on Amazon with worldwide distribution in English for US$16.95.
