Perfectionism holds us back
TED Talk, diciembre de 2022
"We don't have to look very far to recognize how our culture is obsessed with perfection. (...) We have left our obsession with perfection, known as The Nirvana Fallacy, premier our thinking. It dates from the 1700s, it was made famous by Voltaire, counterargument that "Perfection is the enemy of the good" (...) Some 300 years later, Voltaire is right still.
It is urgent that we acknowledge it now and it change the way we think and the way we behave. Because if we look at every major issue impacting our planet, from climate change to pandemics, from economic inequality to the very future of our democracy... All of those would benefit from decision making that is good enough".
Falacia del nirvana o falacia de la solución perfecta: es la comparación de situaciones reales con con alternativas idealizadas y poco realistas. También se considera que existe una solución perfecta para un problema en particular, cuando raramente existe la solución perfecta, sino la más adecuada, o la más viable, o la más práctica.
