The performance is what gets perfected... NOT the performer...

You practice and you practice, then suddenly you realize that while you may be better, you'll never be perfect. But you're glad you did what you did: You got closer to perfection than you were before. So you feel good, even if you don't feel perfect. The amazing thing is that often you end up practicing more!

It is a vicious circle isn't it? I practice (art and music) every day and never feel I'm where I need to be. But yet, tomorrow's another day and I'll do it all over again, and it'll be that way till I'm gone I feel sure.
I know an organist who's been playing for 65 years,yet he practices nearly every day still, even though in my eyes, he long ago perfected his craft. It is a strange thing, that seeking of perfection, and I don't think anyone is really ever truly satisfied.

I once heard a quote that went something like, "Practice doesn't make perfect, practice makes permanent. Perfect practice makes perfect." So to answer your question, I don't know.

If you practice you will make it better eventually making it perfect. You may never practice it enough though to make it perfect. Perfect is a goal to reach which makes us practice.

No one on this earth is perfect, you have half of the concept correct. The other half of your question pertains to a skill set or activity, such as music, art, or typing.

My ex wife could type over 100 words a minute with less than 5 mistakes. (as good as perfect as I have ever seen)
(Her typing test came after she had been out of an office for over a year)

Next point for you is to not read so much into something.

Because how do you suppose you develop skill, Repetition is the Mother of Skill, Mastery of skill is perfection. Dont get involved in trying to live your life by metaphors, perhaps use them to expand your perspectives of what is possible with determination and practice!

I think the person who said no ones perfect made a big mistake and used it as an excuse, though I have to agree w/ whoever said it.

Well, we all want to be masters of our craft, so we practice to be the best that we can. I don't know who ever came up with that saying, I think it only applies to someone learning how to ride a bike.

You must try to become as close to perfection as possible to be really successful at something.
