an idea for the road
So in practical life, often we do not put our whole weight into things until we have some assurance that there is stability. But if we stay in this mode too long, we will never fully get in the shower and get clean....so,we have to know when we have enough testing and when we should put our whole weight into our project. We were not meant to always be in testing mode. Full living is putting our whole weight into what we are doing. As has been said, what is worth doing is worth doing well...and what it done well takes deliberate attention.
As many of you recall, Malcolm Gladwell discusses in one of his revelatory books the rule of "ten thousand hours", which is the time it takes for a person to master a skill. But there is an important ingredient to this theory: your ten thousand hours needs to be spent with deliberate attention. Those who succeeded in mastery did not hold back their weight from the game. They jumped in with their all.
Hang in, y'all.
