If perfect is a standard one's seeking to maintain, they'll always be pulling over.

They'll always be backing off.

Because very rarely do we have stretches of perfection.

Life is an adjustment game, not a perfection game.

Life asks, what can you do when your hands are tied behind your back?

What can you do when you're tired?

What can you do when you've just endured loss, when your pride hurts, your plans fail?

And trust me, that's when you see all those off-ramps.

That's when something in the back of your mind says, hey, all this goes away if you just throw in the towel.

Just go seek perfection somewhere else.

You'll find it there.

but you can chase that rabbit down a million paths.

There is no perfection waiting for you and there is no flawless pursuit.

Life comes down to what will you do now?

Where you are with what you have, can you find a way to win when it hurts?

Look, we all need to understand that life is innately difficult.

And success calls for a simplification that is adapting and stepping forward.

That's all.

Things are hard, you step.

Things don't go as you planned, you adapt and you step.
