Best

I don't make new year's resolutions. I used to but too many times I broke them and then I felt like a miserable failure. One thing I do believe in is doing my very best, whether it's a conversation, a meal, an art project, driving down the street. Not just getting by but doing it in the most excellent way possible. I think there's a difference between perfectionism and excellence. Perfectionism is driving yourself crazy with details, excellence is the art and love of accomplishing something the very best way possible. Many times this doesn't happen but the main thing, I believe, is to keep trying. Diane
