Doing good doesn’t imply a single change is good enough. Taking improvements over a perfection-or-nothing approach is the point of the aphorism. Try to do a little better each day. Take the vitamin. That’s good. Tomorrow, take the vitamin and eat less candy. That’s better.
That is helping, though. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.
Mabe but isnt good enough the enemy of humanity?

Oh, I know, I was just referencing the blackberry movie I had just watched where the inventor said had that argument with his co-ceo/investor.
