SO MUCH BETTER SO EASILY DONE

Friday June 12, 2015


Adequate.

Nobody complaining. People are happy. Or silent. Content. Sure. Expectations are low.

Have you done something well below your best – then someone says, “great job”?

Empty feeling, that, isn’t it – being praised for doing far less than we could have?
