We don't have to be the best; we just have to do our best

I run and I do many things poorly.  I have run over 50 races yet I am slow.  I practice law and I am not the best.  Today, I cannot practice law because of serious mistakes that I made when I was so sick with my alcoholism.  I was very ill and quite insane.  Today I am sober, my sanity has returned.  I am better than I have ever been in my life...still, I am not the best.  But today, I do my best. "Nothing would be done at all if a man waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault with it." - Cardinal Newman.
