I’m listening to the very little phrase of: The perfect is the enemy of the good . So now every time someone drop me le dire:
“Nothing, if you ever have to enter an operating room, as the good doctor thinks better than perfect. What if one day you cross a bridge, the architect to design it well have thought better than perfect, then the contractor to buy bridge materials have thought that good better than perfect, the cement manufacturer thought better good perfect, that the manufacturer of the beams suggest that better-than-perfect good that the metallurgy that melted the steel beams good think better than perfect … and finally we have a bridge of good is bad “
The phrase is one of those buzzwords consultant / manager. And for some fields is correct, but for others it is not correct. And do not realize the two errors that are committed to their job:
– There are jobs where there is perfect and good, there are only right or wrong.
- Then there are projects with chained tasks, where if everyone stays on the good, the most likely to end it all wrong. Many small mistakes adding to the final end with any large project.
For me if not for perfection, do not get to the good. And if input is sought and the good, the most likely to end in the regular or bad.
Anyway, with the current fashion for not striving for excellence, for that, better than perfect bad.
