I’d like to counter with “perfect is the enemy of good”. Knowing when to half-ass something can be a skill in of itself.
- jameshart 3y agoI think your second sentence needed a verb. This would be a case where half-assing it did not.

- jameshart 3y agoOp edited. Originally read > Knowing when half-assing something can be a skill in of itself.
- waynesonfire 3y agoI don't read this as a counter as the skill you mention is in full alignment with the grandfathers advice.
