From the mind of critic: “If we spend all our time searching for the perfect fishing spot before dipping our line in the water, are we drastically reducing our potential to catch fish? Do we look for that secluded lake, river spot or stream that nobody has fished, so we can catch bigger and better-quality fish, from a spot only we know about? Do we spend so much time looking for this spot, that we turn down opportunities to fish in more well-known spots, because that’s what everyone does? Do these passed up opportunities start piling up to the point that we never actually fish, but endlessly talk about it in a way that demeans people who are fishing, because we’re projecting an attitude of low confidence, while portraying an air of superiority over those who try, specifically because they could fail? Cementing the idea of not making the perfect the enemy of the good, takes work because success is never guaranteed. Life is hard, it’s chaos it’s a spinning mass of seemingly impending doom around every corner. However, perspective always filters into the equation, because life can also be a random, always surprising, non-stop integration of infinite beauty into our souls. How we look at things matters. There is nothing wrong with looking for the perfect solution, there are enough collective, societal issues, the human species can use solutions that will actually work. Problems arise when 100% guaranteed success is sought, negating action of any kind. These issues then fester and mutate until they become immune from what worked in the past. Many things garner out attention these days, so many fixes that need to be made, our mind spins out of control. To slow this self-sabotage, we must realize what “doing something is always better than doling nothing” really means. It means failure might happen, but actively and consciously doing our part to unite humanity through our humanity, can only happen if we act cause it’s the right thing to do, not because we waited for the perfect equation to be solved. Teaching a man to fish can feed him for a life time, but he has to physically drop his line in the water. Looking for perfect solutions in a chaotic world, is like looking for a needle in a haystack that might not exist. Positive results are only reached through positive actions, not endlessly planning. Life only appears intimidating, if we forget why we live.”
