Success Doesn’t Need to Be a Bullseye
Maybe the problem isn’t failure. Maybe it’s perfection.
We treat success like it’s this one magical spot on the map: hit it or die trying. Be this rich. Build that startup. Marry her.
But real life isn’t darts. It’s more like trying to land a paper plane in a windy park. You don’t need the bullseye. You just need to hit the grass somewhere near the picnic blanket.
Define success as a range, not a single point. A space where “good enough” and “holy crap amazing” can both live.
That way, you can build messy, experimental, imperfect systems that work most of the time. And you’ll still win big — without pretending life is some robot-perfect algorithm.
