Halfway there

Doing things right the first time will lead you to the best outcome. Trying to take shortcuts will only lead you to an outcome that is just short of where you need to be. Doing only half of what is necessary will only lead you halfway there. Doing things wrong to save time could even make your outcome impossible to reach. If it is important to you then it is important enough to do right. If you are not willing to give it all you got then you will only get what you get not what you need.
