FINAL PHASE OF CONSTRUCTION:

Find your new home for the new year BY LESLIE MASSEY  LESLIE.MASSEY@GAZETTE.COM

The remaining home sites at The Cottages at MacKenzie Place won’t be around much longer. Presenting an exceptional opportunity in a remarkable location, these homes are created for active seniors looking for a spacious, well-designed home, with maintenance-free living. For seniors who value the benefits of homeownership but are ready to spend more time enjoying life instead of working on exterior home maintenance, the right balance is accessible in one of the final 10 sites still available, or start enjoying the good life even sooner in the remaining move-in ready home. The Cottages at MacKenzie Place deliver a vibrant community filled with friendly neighbors and engaging amenities. Located on the MacKenzie Place campus near E. Filmore Street and N. Union Boulevard, an exceptional

lifestyle opportunity for active seniors comes with a relaxed pace and a picturesque setting. When not shoveling snow, homeowners from The Cottages can rejuvenate at the MacKenzie Place fitness center, meet up with friends in the clubhouse or restaurant, enjoy the captivating Nancy Lewis park right next door, or take part in the number of social activities available. Triton Communities, one of the premier senior living organizations, has designed stylish single-family homes for seniors that deliver the high level of quality buyers are looking for. Triton homes are constructed with careful planning, expert craftsmanship and exceptional attention to detail. Furthermore, Triton has a team of experts on-hand to dispense unparalleled customer care to each homebuyer.

Located at Hwy. 83 & Flying Horse Club Drive.

Homes in The Cottages are intended for main-level living and include a private two-car garage, starting under $300,000. Along with ranch-style plans, loft plans are offered which provide mainlevel living with additional living space on the upper level. Triton offers the option of including an elevator during construction, or it can be retrofit down the road if it becomes needed. Personalizing your home is simple thanks to an assortment of design choices allowing you to tailor the home to fit your lifestyle. Arlun Design Center conveniently assists buyers to select the finishes and choices that will make your home truly yours. “Along with being built for main level living with no steps, they are designed for aging in place with wide doors and hallways,” said Mark Brantley, Sales Director

7 characteristics of perfectionism

BY PAULA DAVIS-LAACK  FORBES

Is perfectionism an issue for you? It’s hard to escape its grip in our modern world that glamorizes perfect parenting, perfect relationships and perfect beauty. I am a recovering perfectionist. As far back as I can remember, perfectionism has been my personal achievement standard. At school, I didn’t want to settle for grades less than As. In sports, it was important to not only win, but to also play so well that I would be chosen all-conference or most valuable on my team. I achieved because I craved my parents’ and teachers’ praise and didn’t want to let them down. What I understand now is that my perfectionism was a shield — a way to not have to expose my true self and vulnerabilities. In reality, the school and work pressure really got to me — but I didn’t want anyone to see that. I carried this rigid standard with me and put tremendous pressure on myself in the process until two events changed all of that. The first was that I burned out seven years into my law practice. The hustle to be perfect caught up with me, and I ended up changing careers to do the work I do now. The second was my work with army drill sergeants. I taught resilience skills to soldiers after getting my master’s degree, and the soldiers helped me to drop my perfectionism shield. It wasn’t anything they said outwardly, but it was a gradual process of me realizing that I wasn’t connecting with them in the way that I wanted to because I didn’t want to reveal any of my flaws. My conversations with them were more intellectual rather than heartfelt, and that bothered me. Over the course of the training, I was simply blown away by their willingness to talk about their struggles, and it inspired me to do the same. Not surprisingly, studies reveal a link between some types of perfectionism and burnout. Perfectionistic strivings, the aspect of perfectionism that is associated with setting high personal performance standards and striving for excellence, is much less likely to drive burnout than perfectionistic concerns. Perfectionistic concerns involve being overly concerned about making a mistake, having a fear of negative social evaluation, and having a strong negative reaction to imperfection. Perfectionistic patterns drain your mental and physical energy and can be associated with workaholism. Perfectionists also tend to think in a very rigid way, and this rigid style of thinking (and the strong emotions that follow), amplifies the body’s stress response. Ultimately, perfectionism can negatively impact how you work, your relationships, your home life, and your recreation (do your perfectionist tendencies make it hard for you to relax and enjoy yourself?) In order to evaluate how perfectionism is interfering with your work and life goals, it’s important to understand the different characteristics

or traits of perfectionism. Which of these areas are issues for you? Fear of failure. While nobody really likes to fail, perfectionists take fear of failure to a different level. Instead of finding what lessons could be lurking in the failure, a perfectionist sees failure as a statement of his or her worth or ability. To combat this fear, a perfectionist might overcompensate by reading something over and over again, obsessing about lists and organization, or being unable to make a decision. All or nothing thinking: This is a common thinking trap and it involves your tendency to see a situation as either black or white; right or wrong. For example, if you’re trying to lose weight and you eat one cookie, you might think, “I’ve blown my diet completely!” Defensiveness. Perfectionists often get very defensive when they are criticized because a critique threatens to expose their flaws, much in the same way failure does. Similarly, perfectionists take criticism as a statement of their worth or ability. Fault finding with self and others. Perfectionists are often on the lookout for imperfections in themselves and others. Perfectionists tend to be largely overcritical of any misstatement, misspelling or flaw and see it as vitally important to correct people when they make a mistake. Inflexibility — having a too rigid standard for you and others. There is a difference between setting high standards for yourself and being willing to learn from your mistakes and being inflexible. When I suggest to perfectionists that they may want to come up with their own version of “good enough,” most react as though I’ve just asked them to climb Mt. Everest tomorrow. Inflexible thinking often includes words like “must” “should” and “have to.” Excessive need for control. Perfectionists try to control the behavior or thoughts of the people in their lives as a way of preventing them from making mistakes or encountering harm. Family members have been guilty of doing this to me, and it has negatively impacted our relationships over the years. Can’t trust someone else to handle it. Has someone ever told you, “If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself?” Many high-achievers I work with hold onto this core belief, and as a result, find it very difficult to delegate and when they do, become micromanagers. Perfectionistic behaviors can be sneaky because they are similar to the type of behaviors that most people use to maintain their standards; however, they vary in frequency and intensity. If you want to get a better understanding of your own perfectionistic tendencies and how they are impacting your life, contact me and I’ll send you a free worksheet to get you started. I’d also love to hear from you — how has perfectionism impacted your own life?
