Going Too Far and Falling Short

Zigong asked, "Who is more virtuous, Shi or Shang?"
Confucius said, "Shi often goes too far, and Shang often falls short."
"Does that mean Shi is better?"
Confucius said, "Going too far is the same as falling short," (Wangdao 205).

If I did not hypothesize for this week, would it be considered falling short? I think it would simply because I have made it a part of every week. The curious thing about this week is how to fix the situation when you've gone too far or fallen short. Is there a way to fix it? I can see myself botching something and feeling the need to fix it, but will I be able to? Stay tuned for the answers to these questions and more in next weeks installment of (duh, duh, duh) The Confucius Experiment.
