IT IS NO MATH
Have you ever been caught in the middle where you have exactly in mind what you must do but end up doing just the complete opposite? For centuries some thinkers have pondered on the DUALITY of mind and body. The concept of duality is even popularized in Hamlet’s “TO BE OR NOT TO BE” dilemma ; “shall I or shant I?” Even contemporary writer Mitch Albom quotes Morrie’s aphorism on life, that it is like a rubber band with a “series of pulls back and forth”.
The process of elimination in Mathematics makes problem-solving easier. The other night I watched an elder lecture a teen about how a TULIP grows, glows for a certain time, then dies to make room for other tulips to grow in the garden. You drop certain things to get hold of something else. Same way that a glass can contain only as much.
Unfortunately, life is more obscure than mathematics. It is ideal when you cause the volition, but you will find that some factors have been PRE-ELIMINATED for you. More often than not the processes/damages are irreversible. It does not help that some people can be so smug to claim they have the right answer to OFFER to another. Justifications come into play and do not entirely validate the solution.
Any genius there tell me how to distinguish between sticking to a formula too long and finding a replacement answer too soon? Again, the duality: solve it or skip it? Somebody just announced, right minus wrong daw. Time is ticking………
