The pursuit of “perfect” takes center stage in our ambition-driven world. After all, it’s all about the 4.0 GPA, dream job, flawless relationship, and the ideal house. But, as Mark Cuban once said, “Perfection is the Enemy of Success.” This relentless pursuit of excellence, however, comes at a heavy price in the form of decision paralysis, anxiety, and a constant sense of inadequacy.

Here’s the problem, though: Spending that much time inside isn’t good for your health, well-being, and productivity. Some pollutants are 20 to 50 times higher indoors than outdoors.
