Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.
Vince Lombardi – c/- RecklessPrudence
“Aim high,” it was said, “at least you can’t shoot yourself in the foot.”
“Strive for perfection,” said others. “Accept the remarkable.”
“Do your utmost,” said further others, “and none can criticise.”
They were wrong.
There was plenty of criticism. Plenty of people to show her what went wrong with each and every attempt.
But… the important thing. The truest thing… was that she strove to do better, next time. For every last next time there was.
That’s what mistakes were for.
