When I picked up my management education, part of it included psychology. The approach was focused on management, and things like Helle Hein’s archetype theory, Deci and Ryan’s motivational theory or stuff like DiSC profiles, all had the end goal of teaching me how to maximize worker and group performances in a professional and assertive setting, but I learned a lot about myself going through it. I knew I was a perfectionist. I also knew compromising on quality demotivated me because I want to do things right. I learned that I could stop losing motivation and keep both the joy and personal ownership despite compromising by looking at the bigger picture. It doesn’t matter that parts of the software suck if the end user still see an improved product. This may be obvious to some, it may even sound self-deluding to others, but I learned how to better handle one of the most common place occurrences in my daily life, compromise, by getting to know myself better and finding solutions to my weaknesses. I highly recommend it.
