Impatient defined as to expect result in a unrealistic set of time which lead to low quality work. Other negative effect: Bad planning. Can also be cause by the Pressure to impress .
Solution: turn deadline into a battle plan remember the stage of production and stick to it.
Perfectionism Defined as striving for flawlessness and setting excessively high performance standards, accompanied by overly critical self-evaluations and concerns regarding others' evaluations. It is best conceptualized as a multidimensional characteristic, as psychologists agree that there are many positive and negative aspects.In its maladaptive form, perfectionism drives people to attempt to achieve an unattainable ideal, and their adaptive perfectionism can sometimes motivate them to reach their goals. In the end, they derive pleasure from doing so. Perfectionist often fall in the people pleasing trap i also believe that perfectionism can be resulting from emotional injury from past failure.
Caution failure to achieve perfection for those who fall into neurotic Perfectinism could lead to depression,anxiety,procrastination.
Solution:
Remember that self critism as to be constructive.Those who think they have unhealth perfectionism should strive to understand the root of there excessive behavior.Remember it ok to seek to be better each day.But remember that the mind and body have there own limit.It doesn't mean you can't break them it just mean that you have to learn when to stop or say no.
I also encourage you too read my post on positive think i believe it give a belt of weapon to avoid the trap of self destruction.

I am sorry if it seem like i am overeacting i just want to give you a chance if that a problem for you.
What I post in this thread is more just random thoughts of silly things I come up with during the day or flat out shitposts designed to amuse. I can see why some things I say can give the impression that I don't like my art or think only badly of myself or my drawings but that is not the case. This image for example
I love this image, I'm happy with the approach I had to get it to this point and I really like the colors but I don't see the value in talking about the positive stuff. I'd rather talk about how this image is just some wyvern dragon thing plastered on some pink clouds. There's nothing really going on and the dragon looks stupid and out of place like it was taken from a different image and pasted on this one. <---- this stuff I think is more important than talking about the things I like but if I'm shitting on my images everyday I can see why you would think I'm not satisfied or am trying to chase some unattainable goal. I post anime faces and talk about hentai don't read too hard in to it lol :D
Also I read your post about positive thinking and its all good advice but I also think that a good dose of negativity and sadness are a good thing. There is such a things as being too positive. If you surround yourself in only positivity you become more vulnerable and sensitive and when someone with a different opinion comes and shouts in your face you crumble. Heated debate and arguing is a healthy thing that builds a thicker skin and a crushing defeat is much more valuable that an easy victory. Also world peace is a terrible idea, santa clause isn't real and if you were born in august / july your parents probably had a "happy little accident" after a christmas party but don't think too hard about these things because making art is more important.
Anyway Evo Japan stared today and took like 5+ hours of my life and then I met with some friends so I didn't do all that much today but I don't think I'll work on this image for that much longer. I started trying to make the skin look textured and all realistic and stuff but I can't pull it off in the way that I like because I've never rly done studies of that kind of stuff before so I deleted everything and decided to just go with the usual messy look. Also this way the wyvern fits in the image a bit better because when I was trying to make all the edges crisp and shiny it look like it was a cardboard cut out even more that it does now. Tomorrow I'm reinstalling my PC and putting the new parts I got in it and I don't know how long it will take me to get everything running in order so I might do some oil painting or maybe some charcoal drawings of body parts. I'll figure it out tomorrow I'm go make dinner now o/
