有些事情已经拖了很久却还一拖再拖,问及理由,答曰:没准备好,状态不对,总之就是害怕做得不够完美。对于这些人而言,哪怕有一丁点不完美都是不可接受的,于是事情就一直被搁置下来。这种现象就叫perfectionist paralysis(完美主义瘫痪症)。
Perfectionist paralysis refers to the inability to start on a project, assignment, essay or any creative task due to the fear of not getting it perfectly right.
“完美主义瘫痪症”指的是因害怕无法完美地做成某事而一直未能开始某个项目(作业、论文或创造性的任务)。
Example:
Joe: You haven't started writing your paper yet?
Bob: Nope.
Joe: Isn't it due tomorrow?
Bob: Yep.
Joe: I thought you went to the library and did your research, made your notes and wrote your outline.
Bob: I've got perfectionist paralysis.
乔:你还没开始写你的论文吗?
鲍勃:没呢。
乔:不是明天要交了吗?
鲍勃:是啊。
乔:我以为你去图书馆是做研究、记笔记、写概要去了。
鲍勃:我有“完美主义瘫痪症”。
