" Excellence does not require perfection. "
- Henry James
Perfection is a myth. To be perfect means to never be wrong and to never make a mistake but in reality, it's not possible. Excellence on the other hand is the ability to admit that we are susceptible to making mistakes and nothing can always go as we want it to.
A person who can learn from his mistakes and never try to repeat those mistakes is reaching excellence. Learning about our shortcomings and working on them is the new perfection.
