Fortunately for me, I have little interest in perfection. Good enough is good enough for me.

And so the world belongs to those who are hardheadedly willing to make mistakes, correct them and keep on going. Tenacity in the face of failure has brought many an idea to fruition. If perfectionism was of value, Thomas Edison would have quit on the first light bulb failure, Walt Disney would have quit on the first financial backing rejection for his theme park idea and the list goes on. Most perfectionists are quitters that die at the first sign of adversity or imperfection. Give'em a kick in the behind whenever you meet them.

He's just like me. Except that he's in denial about it. I understand this guy completely. He’s just like me. Except that he’s in denial about it.

It's my favourite Bruno strip!! I completely get your comment. Also, to me it's somewhat bothersome when people praise me for an ability I've spent time developing (and which I've had my doubts I would ever be able to develop) but chalk it up to "talent". They then go on to say that they take no part in said activity because they have no "talent" themselves. It's like saying that it came easily or without hard work. But then again, I'm probably just too sensitive about the subject... I was actually waiting for this strip. It’s my favourite Bruno strip!!
