Not perfect


In general, I like to be efficient.  I like to figure out the best way to do something and then do it.  I want to work hard, get results, and get on with it.

Sometimes, though, it is better to do something than to do the perfect thing.  Maybe we overslept a little and there isn’t time for the ideal workout; it is okay to do a short version instead.  Maybe we discover that we forgot our gym shoes; we can improvise and try out a yoga class.  Maybe we are all set to bike and discover that we have a flat and no spare tube; this might be our chance to speed-walk the neighborhood.


Maybe we can’t be perfect, but we certainly can be pretty darn good.
