Dealing with (my own) type A personality

Many people think that I am too intense and I get too stressed out over little/trivial things. It's just my nature that I will go through whatever lengths to make my final results perfect. From what I understand, this type of personality is best for IBD or s&t. But maybe it's not for anything else. Even my parents (who are Asian haha) thinkI need to cool down a little some time. What do you think is my best course of action?

What you describe isn't type A. Sounds like you're neurotic. Women are neurotic. We can then conclude that you're a pussy. Pussy > Type A.

Type A is when you have a problem - you lean back in your chair, grab your dick, look at your team and say "stand back, I got this shit" and deliver.

I was like you once. Then I grew a brain a heart and a dick.

I'm sick of seeing people who can't write on WSO. Don't take personal offense, but I think everyone should proofread his or her shit before posting.

Realize your an insignificant no one in a country that's part of a small planet within a galaxy that's barely out of it's diapers. Nothing will stress you out.
