The InFluency Podcast

62. Why Perfectionism Will KILL Your Fluency


Listen Later

Having PERFECT English may sound like a dream come true, but what does it really mean to have perfect English? Is it even a THING? Is there such a thing as perfect English?

And even if there was (and there isn’t) – do you think it serves you to strive for perfection, or does it get in your way?

In this episode I’ll discuss why striving for perfection when communicating in English (which means working relentlessly on your pronunciation and never feeling satisfied, beating yourself up on small and big mistakes, not speaking when you’re not sure what words to use) is a potential death threat to your fluency.

You don’t believe me? Listen to the episode and come on over to Instagram @hadar.accentsway and let me know what you think.
