Pressure

Sometimes there is the dilemma repeating in my life:
I work hard so as to prove to myself that I can do a lot more than
I have imagined myself could achieve. So I may say that I have done my best.
But then it came to me that if I admit what has been done is already "my best," does that mean my best is so limited and so trivial, like what has been achieved?
Well, my teachers used to remind me that being perfect or asking for one's limit would make me stressful all the time. Nevertheless, stressful as it may be, I refuse to take the result as it is now.
