With information at our fingertips and nonsense scrolling by, the act of work often seems pointless.
We make our days more complex and complicated with the integration of technology. I can tell you that I created more and felt compelled to create years ago. Today, I often talk myself out of the process because there is no need, audience or purpose. That sucks. I live in the we already did that bubble. But, to burst it means I have the opportunity to do that again better, faster, cleaner, with a new perspective. The original was one path. The copy and exploration of the original can lead to unknown places.
But in the places we are, where so much is easy, it becomes difficult to want something to be hard. But it is in the difficult places where we learn. It is where we are forced to create. It is where adaptation is fostered. I am working on building up my stamina and resilience to face the difficult, to want the hard.
