I have a weird and active sense of humor. I can usually find a bright side or a funny side to most things. The above image turned my humor to sadness so quickly even I was shocked. I know it was supposed to be funny, punny, even maybe a little silly, but it struck me deep. How many places, households, businesses, schools, gyms, universities, could we hang this in and have it be true, and not be funny like it was intended. It made me turn my disapproving waging finger at society and say "shame on you", but then I looked in the mirror and thought, is this me? I decided to make myself a little promise/challenge, this will not, can not be be me! To accept this way of thinking is what, in my opinion, is one of the major things wrong with the world today ( I know this makes me sound old - but I am old you whippersnappers!😃 ).
Too many people start self improvement on themselves only to realize how hard self improvement/awareness ( ie. Mastery ) really is. Too many people say "good enough" instead of "good, enough". The comma in that saying makes all the difference in the world. To say "good enough" is to reach a certain point, and quit, fulfilling the destiny of the sign above. To say "good, enough", to me, means mastery is now in your life and the above sign can go erase itself. I know which one I want to choose, now to actually do it, all in, no partial about it.
