Why?
Sometimes it is very difficult to impossible to move the needle closer to "perfect". In fact the stress of trying to can cause the opposite reaction.
Change the goals to a maintain, unless there is one factor you truly believe you can improve upon, and that improvement is worthwhile.
Once you think you have done everything you can on the deadlines.....time to put more focus on SUBSTANCE.
Ex. Are you projections/budgets accurate? What other information can you provide that can be more helpful to management.
In short, what value can you add?
