The mind set that one brings to an issue, whether it be a poorly sanded surfboard or the discussion in the performance of one is really the bottom line when it comes to getting somewhere in a “Discussion”, which I believe is what we’re having.
To maintain an undauntable adversarial attitude is to close all avenues for progress discussion. So I appeal to those who would want to carry on with a progressive attitude and not be worried about whether someone poo-poos something you’ve done. Hell if you cant take some criticism you can’t enter an objective discussion in the first place.
If we share our process open-mindedly we accelerate our learning curve. If that what you come here for and agree to disagree in a graceful manner stick around, if not go buy yourself a TapOut shirt and start training.
So here’s a little concise philosophy on the subject:
Gettin' It Right
So few will ever get it right ~
Seems the harder we try the less you like us:
Some get it right after they get it wrong.
Some get it right the first time.
Some never get it right.
Some don’t care what’s right,
Some never know what’s right.
The artist fancies’ what’s right
or at least that’s what she’s after,
so she makes her try at perfection;
how close she approaches it
only time and trial can decide.
Her process is a perennial march
toward a heaven she cant define.
So it would seem heaven is,
in the end, more process than place.
