Because perfection, as stated in the practice makes perfect adage, refers to the idea that through repetition, we become more adept at a skill. We can become, in a sense, perfect, when we are able to execute an action correctly without mistake. Unfortunately, in the phrase "Nobody is perfect" it refers to the idea that we all, somewhere, make mistakes, due to human error. We practice to minimize these mistakes, but it is an impossibility to practice everything, largely in part of the situation variables that affect many of our mistakes.

my suggestion is try to practice being very good at what you are good at. We as humans may not be perfect but we can give our best at what we are good at while others around us just can not do what we are able to do. I take care of the geriatric and not allot of people i know outside of the job are capable of doing what i do or could even consider doing my job.

To aspire. In the gutter you can see the stars.
