One of the quickest ways to burn out is to have impossibly high standards around care for animals. We all want the best for them but not everything requires our A+ effort. Sometimes B- work is more than adequate and it's important to know where that line is so you're not constantly thriving for perfection in an imperfect world. Animals need our love, compassion and skill, they don't need us to be perfect so ease up on yourself. This is a robust conversation all animal workers need to hear.
