Keep It Moving

Chapter: Perfection is an exercise in futility Perfection is an exercise in futility. Perfection is a finite goal based on worldly normed standards. Normed standards of perfection are constantly moving with the changes in society's fluctuating ideals, beauty, power, economics, intellect, and pop cultural shifts. These changes are too numerous and fleeting to follow as goals to perfect. These are goals of futility. Instead, focus on the achievement of goals that you create. You are more likely to achieve goals grounded in your control and motivation. You can never see the top when you climb the mountain of perfection because the peak continues to grow with the changing standards of perfection in the world. So, beware when climbing a mountain of perfection with no end. You will spend endless time climbing due to outside influences. Instead, it would be best if you only climbed a mountain of achievement that embodies your internal goals. Keep it Moving: When you stop following normed standards of perfection and start your internal goals of achievement, you will be successful and satisfied. You will follow your path of accomplishment that makes you internally proud, not externally validated. Perfection in isolation should never be a goal. Mastering your standards should be the goal, not externalized perfection. Following someone else's ideals of perfection makes you exhausted, resentful, and somewhat bewildered about what is next. Therefore, a mountain path of perfection will make you continue to look for external instructions. You will embody your standards and goals to accomplish your dreams on the mountain of achievement. The peak of achievement represents your goals. It can be easy or difficult, but it is all within your hands. So always be aware if you are on the mountain of perfection or achievement. So, follow your road, not the road of others. Find your mountain of achievement and accomplish your internal goals. Master your standards and live a life of dreams normed by you only.
