PMP #264: Good Enough

You’ve probably heard the expression “Perfection is the enemy of progress”. Of course, there’s always a balance with everything and I’m not saying this is an excuse to accept low-quality results. But whatever it is you’re doing, whether you’re choosing what tools to use in your business or you’re setting up a new website, you want to aim for “good enough”. This is the point where you’ve achieved an acceptable result or level of quality based on your requirements but any further progress you make from here, you will probably start seeing diminishing returns. And the question has to be asked, is this a good use of time?
