98 Third Time

You really should relax.

Trying to get things right the first time is a recipe for disaster.
How do you know it is right? How do you know it could not be better?
First time, you go left until you go too far.
But now you know how far ‘too far’ is when going left.
The second time you go right too far.
And now you know how far ‘too far’ is that way.

The Third time you have a fairly clear understanding of what the parameters and guidelines are to get it truly right.
Not just slightly /hopefully right.

Ok, so?
In our rush not-to-be-wrong we don’t allow ourselves …to be wrong! So we don’t know what we’re doing is as good as it could be.
Then, as time goes by, we make ‘mistakes’ and by making them realize the parameters are much wider before things go wrong.

You really should relax and get things right the Third time around. This will actually speed up the total /end results!
