Society, through the generations, is intent on progress. With that, we tend to measure what progress is being made by looking at bigger, better, faster, and more robust.
To attain any goal, there are inevitably many factors that we must consider, some within our direct control and others where we have limited or none at all. However, while we may meet, fall short of, or even exceed the expectations set, there is ultimately one element we control: Did you do your best?
Can you say that you could not have done better or that there was no room for improvement? Before assigning blame to others or external factors, we can first look at ourselves.
If we can be truthful, the next question is ‘why not?’
