when trying your best is not enough

The past 3 weeks were hectic and tiring. Juggling between various responsibilities, it was not easy. But satisfaction comes with every piece of work done with my best in the time I can. While I strive to finish one piece of work , I had somehow not able to to put in the same amount of effort to do something else. The result would then mean not a satisfactory piece of work done. At the same time, suddenly when workload from one side increases, somehow, I had chosen to sacrifice another. I think I was wrong to have done that now that I looked back. Perhaps I was wrong in the first place for thinking too highly of my abilities to handle everything. In the end, I not only broke my promise to complete the work, but also chose to stop doing the work. While I rejoiced for completing my work, I had caused someone to be left helpless, and another to be left feeling apologetic. Sometimes trying my best is really not enough.
