The future-present paradox
- status: stub
- (also needs a better name)
- How can you simultaneously fully act into the present moment, while also preparing for the future?
- Themes that connect with this:
- The Bell and the Blackbird - a poem by David Whyte about a celtic fable
- Celtic fable of a monk with a bell and a blackbird, then a poem about this
- Relates to post-fixing, and the paradox of preparing for your life vs living your life
- ~"You don't get to choose. You always need to practice, and you always have to meet the world where it finds you, just as you are."
- there's a clip somewhere in this youtube video
- maybe the thing where a doctor's work is called their practice
- developmental view vs fruitional view
