Are you really good - or good enough?

Sure, we can’t be perfect all the time and sometimes “good enough” really is “good enough” - depending on what needs to be done. But, we have to avoid sinking into the rut of mediocrity, substituting excuses for accountability. Sometimes I think the single biggest challenge of being a grown-up is owning our choices and accepting responsibility - even when it’s not “fair.” For example, “But, I didn’t mean to” or “I didn’t know” should be totally unacceptable “reasons” for anyone over the age of eight. For more thoughts on all this - check out Seth Godin’s Abundance and the TBR.
