Sometimes you have to be relentless in your quest.
Could be at work, when you want to be above average as a minimum.
Could be when making a simple dish at home...
You have to push forward with obsessive attention to details to make it right.
Obsession is a medium to get to the results you seek which could be up to insane standards.
I do think that the worlds biggest accomplishments were realized by very driven people.
So don`t fight it. Leave it be the vehicle for achieving something extraordinary which will inspire others;D
