from the mind of critic-10/17/17

From the mind of critic: “If we read the directions when all else fails, what do we do when we fail over and over, but there are no directions? Do we flail around, doing the first thing that pops into our head? Do we analyze why we failed, so we can figure out how to succeed? Have we grown so used to following directions, that we don’t know how to lead? They say there are three types of people in the world, leaders, followers and get out of the wayers. The comparison misses the point though, because we have all three traits within us by virtue of being human. We must be all 3 in certain situations. We must also not be afraid to read directions when we don’t know something, or be so reliant upon directions, that the concept of blazing our own path is a foreign language. Once we realize keeping balance in life is the biggest way to keep our sanity, we’ll see whether there is directions or not, if we aren’t afraid to get out of our comfort zone or routine, we’ll never fail. Critical thought is the secret to a fulfilling life.” 🙂
