MAKING DECISIONS AND WORKING TOWARDS PERFECTION

You know one thing about making decisions?, you don't have to make the right one, you just have to make one.
If there is a common job that we all have, it's the job of decision making. We make considerable amounts of decisions in our daily life, from micro-decisions which we might not even realise (like choosing to go out or stay at home or choosing to skip a class) to mega-decisions which are very important (like choosing a career). 
It would be nice if we could continually remind ourselves the fact that we don't necessarily need to make the right decision all the time, most of us want to hit the bull's eye all the time when it comes to decision making. You know what? those people you deem great were forged from furnaces of trial and error. They didn't get it spot on all the time when it comes to decision making.
Trial and error is a very important part of our learning process. We are not perfect so we just keep working towards perfection everyday of our life. Look at how I view it, I see imperfection and perfection from a spectrum point of view. Imperfection at one end of the spectrum and perfection at the other end and then between them is a mixture of the both.
Considering this, that means that we are born imperfect, then we work our way towards perfection at the other end of the spectrum. And because I have not seen a perfect man yet, I assume that we never hit the perfect spot at the other end of the spectrum. That means that we keep working towards perfection throughout our lives.
So in the course of our lives, errors must occur and it isn't something we should be scared of, rather it should be an experience worth learning from, you should get hold of your life and start making decisions.

Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we catch excellence. ~ Vince Lombardi.
