    Sometimes You Can't

    I've never seen myself as a perfectionist. I don't need things to be just right or second guess for so long that things never sees the light of day.

Missing deadlines, being late to meetings, delayed arrivals; these things sound like scary episodes of The Twilight Zone. Last week, we didn't release a newsletter. It wasn't late. It wasn't delayed.
