Unachievable Standards
Striving for perfection or unrealistic societal standards can result in a sense of failure when these standards are not met.

In the New Testament of the Bible, the young man often referred to as "the rich young ruler" sought to be perfect. This individual approached Jesus as described in the books of Matthew (19:16-22), Mark (10:17-22), and Luke (18:18-23). He asked Jesus what he should do to inherit eternal life and claimed to have kept all the commandments since his youth. In response, Jesus told him that to be perfect, he should sell all his possessions, give to the poor, and follow Him. The young man became sorrowful at this directive, as he was very wealthy and could not part with his possessions.

The story serves to illustrate that perfection, as per Jesus' teachings, involves a complete commitment and willingness to give up earthly treasures to follow Him. It is also a lesson that moral perfection under the law is impossible, and that the young man's reliance on his own efforts to achieve righteousness was misplaced—as Christian doctrine teaches that salvation and perfection are through faith in Jesus Christ, not by human effort alone.
