For me, “enough” is a measure I struggle with constantly. I’m always deciding when to accept a project or other endeavor to be “good enough” for me to be satisfied with it.

And then there's the judgement side. I know a sihtload of people that are constantly looking for praise. I have fallen into that trap myself more often than not. However, I have seen why that isn't the way to judge one's accomplishments.
By most definitions I am a master carpenter. I can do some nice work but mistakes are a fact. They can be small and not noticeable or something gone wrong could ruin the job. The work is 95% paid for by customers so getting paid pretty much constitutes acceptance.
Now we enter the phase of what the other person knows. I have often wondered about the qualifications of experts and critics although I don't refute they exist.
I bring all this down to the saying, "Who's to say?"
