What do you make of this statement from the article you posted? I’m not sure what the author means. What are examples of little things?
In the words of the 18th-century English writer Samuel Johnson: ‘It is by studying little things that we attain the great art of having as little misery and as much happiness as possible.’
I believe what he means is. . . find something to do, anything, no matter what it is, do it well, and be the best you can be at it.
Do you like building pop-sickle art?
That is fine. But study pop-sickle art, and attain a mastery of pop-sickle artistry.
The notion of it is to do nothing, be nothing. If you can stand it.
Funny. But; being bored and being boring are two separate issues.
Prove it.
Nothing to prove.
