I am not a person who wants to do work that’s “good enough.” I want to do work that’s Excellent, that Exceeds Expectations, that improves my life and the lives of those who come into contact with my work. Good Enough is not good enough for me, and it isn’t for you, either, if you are striving to have real impact in the world.
But I struggle sometimes to feel like I, as a human being, am Good Enough. Just as I am. With my flaws and my weaknesses. I’m worthy of success and respect and goodness, even though I’m imperfect. In this case, Good Enough is good enough. Good Enough is perfect. Good Enough is human.
Only when we accept ourselves as Good Enough are we able to make work that is more than Good Enough.
