"If a thing is worth doing it's worth doing well" nghĩa là gì?

"If a thing is worth doing, it's worth doing well" = nếu việc đó đáng, thì hãy làm cho đáng -> làm hết sức mình. 

Ví dụ
Having a perfectionistic streak (tính cầu toàn) is one thing. You try to do your best: "If it's worth doing, it's worth doing well." Yet you can silently berate yourself (tự mắng mình) if you're not at the top, at all times. 

If you’re a perfectionist (người cầu toàn), you may vehemently protest (phản đối kịch liệt) this idea. You may even cringe. “Anything worth doing is worth doing well” is the truism (sự thật) so many of us were brought up with. If you’re not going to do it properly, you may as well not even do it at all. 

Still, the number of unbalanced wines we found was unsettling (đáng lo ngại). It’s hard to believe in a category more than the producers themselves do. If a thing is worth doing, as countless parents have scolded, it’s worth doing well. Right now, with these wines, the potential (tiềm năng) is there, but value and pleasure are not always delivered.
