Good (enough) gets you going;
Perfect bogs you down.

Good enough is the start line 💯
It's better to take the next step from Good Enough and prosper than try to leap across the canyon to Perfect and perish.
My dad has a saying he picked up from his time in the military: "Perfect is the enemy of good enough."
Exactly right - and I had that in mind when I typed my post in. 👍
I had a similar mentality working as an engineer and now when making software. You can't have a "perfect" garden in this world.
The thing I've learned working professionally as a software developer is that everything is trade-offs. The best thing you can do is learn to recognize all the trade-offs so you can make the ones that appear most favorable.
