Be Willing to Compromise ~ How to Work with People Ep. 51

In nearly every undertaking, be wiling to compromise your idea of perfection in favor for a positive flow of energy. For only rarely is perfection needed for success. Demanding perfection in small matters may not only halt your creative momentum, but may drain your subbordinates (be they other individuals, or your own psyche) to the point of breaking. Nor should you expect perfection of others in their efforts, for as Swami said, "If I expected my friends to be perfect I would be a very lonely man." Rather, see everyone in light of who they are, and your shared humanity.
