0 I don't take that meaning, Zerox. That would be true for "the ends justifies the means." I believe Philip's interpretation is the one intended. Or, as Yoda said, "Try not. Do." 0-

"Doing your best is not good enough." After I read it, I have a slight feeling that it means that however hard you try is not what matters. "You must do what is necessary." What really matters is if what you're doing is right, if you really need what you're doing. The quote tells the reader that before you put everything into what you're doing, you have to make sure if what you're doing is right
