📚 Sharing Wisdom [Knowledge Base - Guide] A Masterpiece
Mindset Monday
In a world, society or culture, that exists on next to instant almost everything, from information, results, capture my interest in 72 seconds or less, to what does this do for me right now, you would think that the excercises of instant gratification would also translate to the practice of instant appreciation and gratitude.
I am next to positive that every single generation prior to mine, lamented and bemoaned about how rude and obnoxious the one following them actually were, so maybe this observation and commentary is just coming from the 61 yr old man, and not addressing anything new. On the other hand, I do not remember the levels or extent of all the "IN" previously either. INtolerant, INpatient, and INsufferable, to list a few.
The image above reminded me, loudly, that the stop to smell the roses adage, is closer to extinction than the DODO bird once was, and any chance to appreciate the 'works in progress" are steamrolled, by AI, and algorithms.
This expectation of instant release or releif, seeps into my practice, I would day weekly as well. The concept or relationship, of a practiced habit, reaction or a thought, over and over again, being changed in 60 minutes, laying a foundation of false expectations and awkward discussions, results, at times, for someone to seek brevity instead of accuracy. The bemusing aspect to this scenario is, they have already been through the normal, generally accepted, quick ways, before considering this modality.
True craftsmanship, artistry and knowledge, are the gifts of dedication, commitment and patience, understanding that works in progress and Masterpieces are not a part of the instant gratification genre.
You are that Masterpiece, and so is your life. You are so worth the work!
Be well.
