on “good enough”
That’s probably the bigger realization.
I’ve never really thought of mowing as something that requires technique.
I’ve thought of it as maintenance.
You don’t need to understand the grass.
You just need to make it shorter.
But there’s a difference between doing a chore and doing a chore well.
You can technically mow a lawn while ignoring almost everything.
You can cut it.
It will look shorter.
Congratulations.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve done the lawn any favors.
And that’s probably why some people care so
