"The goal is not to be perfect by the end. The goal is to be better today." We are "completionists" by nature. We aren't a group to half - complete tasks. We finish things. But in that desire to achieve the end-state, we must be mindful of the other edge of the sword. If we have one eye on the finish line, we'll only have one eye on the path directly ahead. The only task that matters, right here and now. Keeping an eye on the prize can be misleading. We set clear, actionable objectives, but we don't become obsessed with them. We become obsessed with the now. Keeping our eyes focused on making today a masterpiece is all that matters. Brick by brick.
