I don't know that I have a single motto I live by, but if I had one, that would be it.

Better is good. And achieving better doesn't mean that you're done, you keep striving for better, but it does mean that you don't pass up better waiting for perfect. In a binary election that is the ultimate question. Not "the side I prefer isn't fixing everything the way I want it fixed so I'm either voting for the other guy or sitting it out to show my displeasure". It's "let's take one who is better and will at least try to make things incrementally better". Again, not saying you're doing that, but there are a lot of people who are. For the life of me I can't understand the Pro-Palestine voters who say they will vote for Trump or sit it out because they don't like that Biden has not stopped Bibi. Trump's answer is essentially that genocide is actually the best answer and just do it quickly. But they want to express their anger and are blinded by it.
