My Grand Pa had a poem that he hung on the wall of his Gunsmith shop the 30 + years it was open, I discovered it again on a great web site called Long Range hunting one of the very best forum sites on hunting and associated subjects.  

This site and the TV show are here to help Gunsmiths learn from each other, this is one important lesson we should all live by

 

 

Beware of Good Enough
author unknown

My Child, beware of "good enough,"
It isn't made of sterling stuff.
It's something anyone can do;
It marks the many from the few.

The flaw which may escape the eye,
And temporarily get by.
Shall weaken underneath the strain,
And wreck the ship, the car, or plane.

With "good enough," the car breaks down,
And one falls short of high renown.
My child, remember and be wise,
In "good enough", disaster lies.

With "good enough," the shirkers stop,
In every factory and shop;
With "good enough," the failures rest,
And lose the one who gives the best.

Who stops at "good enough" shall find,
Success has left them far behind.
For this is true of you and your stuff--
Only the best is "good enough."
