Auguste Rodin strives for accuracy, efficiency and precision, and he becomes very irritable when things are not done "right".
On the other hand, Auguste Rodin can become so much of a perfectionist and so self-critical that he will not even attempt many activities and projects, feeling that his efforts will simply not be good enough.

Of course, practice makes perfect, and if Rodin does apply himself diligently in a given area, he gradually gains self-confidence as he masters skills and develops expertise.
