Love the shot Eric!
Yep, I'm also a perfectionist (in anything I do), and indeed my own worst critic, so hear ya completely!
Ivett often says I'm way too hard on myself, but while she is right, my thinking is that if we don't push ourselves as far as we can go, we can never improve (establishing those foundations, as you put it).
Still, a man can push himself too far (mentally) and I do need to learn to back off with myself a little now and again. Will sure give your advice a go
