Done is better than perfect, but... - Dec. 12, 2023.

Recently, I've been feeling overwhelmed because of my thesis and the fast-approaching deadline next week. I'm working hard on Chapter 4, which is crucial for concluding my thesis. I'm trying to do my best. I had forgotten the saying, "Done is better than perfect," until I wrote in my diary today. I still have some time to improve my thesis after the deadline, so I'm aiming to finish it now, get advice from my professor, and then make it perfect.

Even though I believe that finishing is more important than being perfect, I can't help but want to impress my professor and hear them say, “You did a great job! Your thesis is perfect!” It's tough to submit a perfect thesis with no errors or changes needed, but I'm working to complete Chapter 4 with that goal in mind. That’s important too, right?
