Have you ever heard of ideal gases?

The law of ideal gases state that under certain conditions (that are hypothetical), a Gas will follow these three postulates:

1. The particle size should be zero
2. The particles should travel in straight lines
3. The particles should have zero attraction to each other

Perfection sounds so achievable, but when we try to translate it to reality, it reveals itself to be hypothetical. Even gases are not Ideal. They strive to be, but even under the perfect conditions, they just come close.

It’s the same with humans. with the right set of conditions and opportunities, we can come close to what we call perfection. But the criteria for perfection is ever-expanding. So, instead of striving for this fallacy called perfection why not strive for improvement? We can always improve in small increments daily. This will help with the fear of failure as well. Instead of trying to take big leaps, we can learn how to take small steps; just like how a child learns how to walk.

Hope this helps.
