What is Perfection?

It’s a chase. After all, perfection is a made-up reference.

My perfection may be your blunder. Chasing after perfection is akin to chasing after Santa Claus. Something lies deeper than the feeling of perfection. The phrase that I can get the closest to is effective engagement.

It still doesn’t capture the feeling, but I wish to explore it this deeper. Where does effectiveness arise from?

Superficially, it’s some level of expertise or skill to consistently deliver on an outcome. But deeper, there’s an understanding of the cause and effect, the nature of what you are doing or pursuing. There’s a knowing of the levels, the components at work and what they do. How was that knowledge of the inner workings developed?

Through engagement and awareness. At some point, the individual was engaged.

They engaged with their senses to understand the thing in front of them. They had to train their awareness to make sense of the inputs and outputs. In this way, they naturally understood the cause and effect behind the matter. They understood the components which unlocked the keys to gain the results – effectiveness. In this way, they naturally understood the cause and effect behind the result.

Perfection chases after the man who is effective in his own life. Effectiveness chases after the man who is aware and engaged in his life.
