Good versus Perfect
Perfection is and will always be a moving target for us. I advice anyone to not chase after it, however set short, attainable, time-constrained goals that lead to good. You will be more efficient in the long run. For example, as a freshman in college, i strived to write the perfect paper in my English class, often spending extra hours to accomplish this. The extra time, i invested would have been better spent on other classes or my hobbies. I could have read that chapter for calculus or worked on that embedded project that i was very interested on. My insistness on perfection took that time away. Don’t get me wrong, i’m not saying perfection is a bad thing, but i’m saying its expensive. Strive for good work always with the occasional sprinkle of perfect.
