From the mind of critic: “If life requires certain tools to fix certain problems, does the speed of the tool’s acquisition determine if the problem gets fixed? Do we fix problems bigger, faster, stronger if we never struggle for lack of money? Does the ease of tool acquisition always translate to easy solutions? Do we learn better solutions quicker, if we can’t just run out and grab new tools, but must wait till we’ve earned them? Does acquiring a new tool and learning the best way to use it before we acquire another, allow our knowledge to build, so when we’re in dire need of that tool, we actually know what we’re doing? If neither having infinite tools, nor being professional in their use guarantees success, how can we best prepare ourselves? Looking for black and white, silver bullet solutions to problems whether personal, professional or spiritual, will only lead to more problems. Life is messy, it’s chaotic, it will chew us up and spit us out before we can blink. However, life is also beautiful, exciting, and will make our wildest dreams come true, if we allow our soul to sing. Yes, it’s once again about perspective and choices. When we hit a stumbling block we think is insurmountable, utilizing gained knowledge will usually do the trick. Problem is many of us have blocked or ignored these lessons for so long, we don’t realize we already possess solutions. We should start with the most basic tools we gain as children, which gradually evolve with our life experience as we get older. We pick these tools up along the way not for one-time use, but endless uses. Once we discover the true use of our tools, we’ll see that we’ve always had them, we just may not have been kind enough to ourselves to allow their use. Self-confidence will only bring success, if we allow the self-kindness that created it, to spread outward. Tools are made to be used, not to display on a shelf. Buying everything we want makes us think we don’t need anything, because ignorance has become more important than truth. More tools may fix more problems, but it wont stop problems from popping up. Being grateful not only makes life brighter, it makes it more authentic.”
