From the psychology definition of perfectionism, there's both the version that lets you accomplish a thing well and the version that hinders you from completing something.
Anecdote: When it comes to me doing anything remotely artistic, I get so bogged down in fixing the details that I ignore the big picture. In reality, trying to perfect the details means I'm focusing on things that are going to jump out at me, but not at other people.
"Perfect is the enemy of good" is a good proverb about this.
