I'm an eager fan of YouTubeing tropical fishkeeping hobbyists. An English gentleman's channel, MD Fish Tanks, is among my top five "gotta catch updates."
It's not just about fishkeeping. MD is a goofy, cheerful, highly creative and intelligent young man who creates living art and share that joy.
During one of his build videos, he tossed off the thought that "You can't make it perfect, but try to make it excellent." And I caught my breath at the elegance of that. Try your best, and enjoy the effort. Try your best, that's all anyone can do. Give it your all so you can take pride in it.
