The perfectionism cannot be defined in a uniform way. A thing which seems to be perfect to some people may look awkward to some other people. The perfectness and awkwardness are only mental feelings. The persons who see the reality cannot say it is perfect or it is not perfect because for example Iron cannot be gold and gold cannot be Iron. The gold is being treated as a valuable metal why? its availability on earth is very less when compared with that of the availability of Iron. Some feel that its glittering golden color makes it a precious metal it is totally baseless because today artificial gold (rude gold) is glittering more brightly than the original gold but it is not being treated as a precious metal. The platinum is a black metal but its value is more than that of gold. So here the availability and abundance are the key factors in deciding the value of a metal. Actually when compared in the daily usage the Iron is more useful than gold but its abundance made it a less valued metal. In the same way there are no measurement tools to measure the perfectness of a work or perfectness of a thing. In some people`s feeling, the more comfortable a thing is the more perfect. To some extent this is true but the comfortness is not uniform to all people, for example the western type foods are less preferable to the Indians and the Indian type foods are less preferable to the West so here the preference or comfortness cannot be defined universally. Cleanliness and orderliness are some yard sticks to perfectionism but total cleanliness and total orderliness are looking totally unnatural and the men who love nature cannot be adjusted in such total cleanliness and total orderliness, for example an African Tribes man if suddenly offered an accommodation in a fivestar hotel what happens? Does he feel it a comfortable? He feels the open forest is more comfortable than this concrete jungle. So the uniform definition for perfectness is not possible so generally a thing which attracts positive feelings of a more people can be said it is perfect and the opposite can be said an imperfect.
Perfectness is purely mental feeling and to live happily we must follow the reality and forget about total perfectness which is only a myth. This same para can be perfect or imperfect when its lines are not in a order. The orderly ness and orderly shape are favorable to almost all people so the orderliness and orderly shape are perfectness measures.
