That old saying...

"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are".

I think Theodore Roosevelt was the person who said this.

I was thinking about this today while doing chores.

Sometimes circumstances exist where you don't have what you need to do a perfect job. You may not have all of the tools that you need, or you may be under the weather, or any number of things might be present that cause you to do a less than perfect job.

I'm a perfectionist, and I used to always get upset if something I was working on didn't come out perfect.

If you adopt the above attitude, you can live and work without guilt or stress.

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
