Where you set your standards is usually where you end up stopping. Set them where you want to land.

LEADERSHIP

WHAT THIS MEANS

Good enough is a line you draw, and once you cross it the pull to keep going mostly disappears. That line gets set early, often without you choosing it, by whatever was acceptable around you. Raising it changes where you stop long before it changes how hard you work.

Pick one thing you do regularly and define what a genuinely good version of it looks like. Write it down so it is not negotiable in the moment. Then hold that line once and see how far past your usual stopping point it sits.
