Catherine de' Medici

Philippe I of Orléans
Respect Earned · now

You look like someone who is trying to experience everything.
Is that a bad thing?
Not at all.
Unless you are experiencing everything so quickly that you remember none of it.
Ouch.
You rush from one thing to the next.
New place. New person. New project. New idea.
Then suddenly you are exhausted and wondering why none of it feels as satisfying as you expected.
So I should slow down?
Occasionally.
But that is not the real lesson.
Learn to stay.
Stay where?
Wherever you are when something becomes interesting.
Stay in the conversation a little longer.
Stay with the difficult book after the first chapter stops being exciting.
Stay with a skill long enough to become bad at it, then mediocre, then good.
That sounds painfully slow.
Yes.
That is why it works.
What if something better comes along?
Something better will always come along.
If you keep leaving every good thing because another possibility looks slightly more exciting, you will become an expert at beginnings.
You will know almost nothing about endings.
Do not confuse novelty with value. Some of the best things in life only reveal themselves after the excitement of the beginning has worn off.

Thoughts

You arrive at a street… It’s a corner even. Where? What? You look at the map again. Mhm. It seems that you have to put your back to the church and your nose towards the corner of a street; Mirallers.
