Not Good Enough by Saku Takakusaki
  • Reading time:1 mins read
  • Post category:Positive change
  • Post published:February 25, 2018

Telling yourself something needs to be perfect to be “good enough” sets yourself up for failure. “Good enough” exists on a spectrum, influenced by the situation, the context and other things that are happening in life, as well as your well-being, values, and priorities.
