They may set high standards for themselves and work hard to meet them. This can lead to success and validation in the workplace, which only encourages this approach. However, perfectionism can also have a number of negative consequences.

Not every task requires the same amount of time investment or mental capacity, so counting completed tasks alone will not give you a realistic productivity rating. A lot of other factors are at play as well, like energy levels, motivation, concentration, general well-being, and these are much harder (if not impossible) to score objectively.
