Best is the Enemy of Good Enough...

I've written about this before, but the message is worth repeating now and then so I don't forget...

Sometimes I'll spend hours on something I'm trying to get perfect. "This block of code could be cleaner." or "Progressing through this form doesn't feel very natural now does it?" It's a trap I fall into all the time. (Thankfully I'm getting a little better at catching myself on the edge.)

That's not to say I shouldn't always be trying to do my best! I do however have to accept my best for what it is today, continue to learn from my experiences and improve.
