Wisdom of the Ages 360
April 7, 2005 at 8:25 am (Wisdom)
In French we have a proverb which says “Le mieux est l’ennemi du bien” (Better is good’s enemy). I think it corresponds to the English saying “Let well enough alone.”
To me, this doesn’t mean we shouldn’t strive for excellence - but at least, this has taught me to be less self-critical, and happier with my end results (jobwise and craftwise).
