Good. Good is a very useful metric, perfect is the enemy of good, and I continually come short of perfect, but good seems to be good enough. The painful parts are not dissimilar though, awkward errors along the way, the piece between good and perfect being a disappointment or missing an expectation, but delivering on good is better than stagnating and failing at perfect. It's tricky in the internet age of shiney brilliance, but good is good enough. Very good, that's superb.
We all have those sticky periods where progress seems painful and futile, but persistence, and perhaps reframing the issue, usually gets you through. But you have to be willing to adjust to the pace and continue.
If I'm happy to get put of bed in the morning, and not dreading any of the work that I need to do that day, thats success for me. I recognise my privilege, and there were plenty of times in the past where this wasn't the case.
Yes, when we are in difficult circumstances the smallest advances can seem like the biggest victories. Learning to celebrate all those tiny movements in a positive direction is a helpful technique for reinforcing behaviour that will enhance our lives.
