While practice does indeed help one to become closer to perfection, it does not necessarily make ‘perfect’. In the end though, ‘perfection’ should not always be the end goal. The reason is with perfection often comes inflexibility. While one can train and train to nail a particular process without any errors, the fact is that life rarely stays the same such that the process is written in stone. Instead, practicing enough for excellence while still maintaining the option to be flexible and adaptable is more helpful in the long run as the target is usually in motion during the time spent practicing. Get some pointers on how to make sure you are working toward excellence yet covering your bases for other possibilities!
