1 Good enough for who?

  • Consider whose standard of good enough is important and a priority. 

  • Unpack what that expectation or standard is

  • Is this realistic or an impossible standard?

  • What is a more realistic and possible standard? 

  • Find an opportunity and way to communicate it tactfully

2 Let your Values Guide you.

  • What are your top 3-5 values?  

  • What is most important in this particular project/task/issue you are trying to tackle

  • How are you able to adjust your expectations such that you are prioritising this value(s)? 


3 What do you want to go big on? Considering Trade offs. 

  • Consider what you want to go big on. Prioritise what is most important. 

    • E.g Time for exploration / High standard in terms of execution etc. 

  • Make a conscious choice to allocate more resources to this.
