Forget about the cracks

Posted on by philipdodson

Perfect can never be, as in order for it to be so would mean the end of everything.

Once perfection is reached, it can always be improved upon, so only ending everything would that level of ‘perfect’ remain. Otherwise, perfection is a momentary and subjective thing.

In order for anything to be it has to have the opposite, the Yin and Yang, to exist. So for there to be perfect there has to be imperfection.

The thing is, perfect does not matter. It is just a way of our mind creating an excuse for not doing something, we can hide behind perfection not doing something to avoid being judged as to our perfection. Equally, imperfection does not matter either, it is only a tool of judging.

Let go of perfect or imperfect and enjoy just doing, just living, just being. Forget about the cracks.

Outcome

Posted on by philipdodson

If we are not attached to an outcome and instead we stay consciously focused on the joy of doing in the present moment, then the outcome will sort itself out. If we are only focused on the end result, the doing becomes a means to an end, and the work, or the doing, is not of the quality required to achieve the desired outcome.

Doing is a thing we can only do now, so when we put all our attention and awareness to that process and stay away from the distractions of the mind, then we achieve the things we want, free from stressing about it.

Negativity hampers our efforts and that negative energy comes from the constant thought about the final result.

Enjoy the doing not the end.
