About this test
Perfectionism wears three different faces. Sometimes the impossible bar points inward — redoing work that was already fine, grading your own efforts pass/fail. Sometimes it points outward, at the people whose sloppiness you can't unsee. And sometimes it presses in from outside, as the feeling that everyone is watching for your first visible mistake. This 45-statement test scores all three strands separately: Standards for Yourself, Standards for Others, and Pressure From Others — showing where the pursuit of flawless serves you and where it quietly charges rent.
What you'll discover
Standards for Yourself
The inner bar that keeps rising — sky-high personal standards, redoing 'fine' work, and all-or-nothing grading of your own efforts.
Standards for Others
The outward-pointing bar — expecting flawlessness from people around you, irritation at sloppiness, and difficulty delegating.
Pressure From Others
The bar you feel pressing in — performing to imagined judges, fearing visible mistakes, and sensing that others demand perfection from you.
No sign-up required.
