It’s a simple fact of life: Perfection is an impossible standard. But in a results-driven world, it seems like we’re constantly reminded of how coveted perfection still is.
Rather than striving to get everything just right, strive to excel in your own way. Start by chasing personal greatness, the kind of excellence that celebrates your progress. And take comfort in the fact that no matter where you are in life, it’s always up for grabs.
