Ep. 74: Do your best and forget the rest

We all judge ourselves too harshly when it comes to doing our best. We raise the bar too high, setting it at perfection, and give ourselves a failing grade for anything that falls short of that.

I’ve learned that completion is the goal, not perfection.

A beautiful teacher named JoAnn Hollis taught me that even at our worst, our work can still be a great gift to others. It’s not ours to judge, just to complete.

The results of what I do are none my business. My business is simply to do my best, then release the results and move on to the next assignment.
