No man in this universe is perfect. Every person differs from others, both physically and mentally. No two people think exactly alike. The only constant factor in the lives of humans is change. Whatever seemed to be perfect just a little while ago is not so now. Moreover, it cannot be, as things need to change to provide solutions to emerging problems.
Change offers excitement to your life. Changing situations and environments do not allow perfection to thrive.
Lack of perfection does not mean a lack of accomplishment. You can do things well enough and fulfill conditions of the job. If you view perfection to be your goal, you may not even venture to begin the job. Absolute perfection is an abstract term.
If you try to achieve perfection, you will keep practicing and practicing until you master all aspects of your work. This is an impossible feat because you need to be constantly refining your work, not finishing it to the best of your current ability and then getting on with your next task. This means that you have to be trying forever.
This may stop you from even starting the job.
Just accept that no one is perfect. Everybody begins from some point and makes errors at some point. You should start with small, sure steps. You can keep improving on these initial steps and progress slowly.
It is better to be happy that you tried and put in some effort, instead of not doing or trying anything at all.
