Honed to Perfection ???

This article was recommended by Subbu in a comment on Susu's blog-post about some transient midlife-crisis/existential-dilemma

It says that, many a times, the search for perfection is not good for you ... that the extra load and worry is just not worth it ...

I agree ... not because I am a lazy bum (you guessed wrong) ... but because I have always believed in "ek lohaar ki"

Wouldn't it be great if we all knew when to stop ... we could just show up ... make maximum impact ... and then rush out before the law of diminishing returns kicks in

I cannot paste the whole article ... nytimes copyright rules bar free distribution ... but you can always follow the URL

I guess folks in the software world would find the concept familiar. One of the warnings, given at the time of training, is against gold-plating

So folks ... chill out ... take it easy and enjoy

I always wanted a feature like this ... and was very happy when I discovered it today ... am wondering if its been around for a while ... and also wondering why blogger's has not publicized this new feature
