Letters on Life#3 What I said. It just isn't the conclusion that the actual about Get Stretch Marks. You check out this article for facts about anyone need to know is Get Stretch Marks. Get Stretch Marks Some experiences you never forget. In some of them there is great learning. Many years ago I had such an taste that remains with me to this day. It shows up in so many areas of my life. To begin with I like to perform. I was a trial lawyer for 30 years and have been a musician since I was seven. Most citizen would say I am comfortable in front of people. But even now, whenever I'm in front of people, there is an inner conversation going on that I do not want to have. It is all the time a unlikeness of "can I do it" or "will it be good enough." This taste occurred when I participated in a weekend workshop sponsored by the Actors organize which was designed to growth one's potential to give best presentations. The participants included actors, musicians, comedians, lawyers and politicians. After a long weekend of exercises designed to "stretch" us we were required to give our presentation. We then critiqued our own and each others performance. Without exception, our critique of our own presentation was much harsher than the groups. The trainer commented that if we had to hire ourselves we would never get a job! We are so hard on ourselves. The truth is, in the process of trying to be perfect, we often focus on our imperfections and sometimes that is all we see. Because of this fear of being imperfect, we procrastinate and agonize over seemingly easy tasks. My wife Annie reminded me of a story that illustrates this point. The master lived quite a distance from the stream. Every day his servant, the water bearer, would walk from his master's house to the stream with two large pots, each hung on opposite ends of a pole which he carried across his neck. One pot was excellent and all the time delivered a full measure of water at the end of the walk, while the other pot had a crack in it and arrived only half full. This went on for a full two years and the excellent pot was proud of its accomplishments, but the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its imperfections and of the fact that it was only able to achieve half of what it had been made to do. Ultimately the cracked pot summoned up sufficient courage to have its own conversation with the water bearer. It went something like this. " I am ashamed and I want to apologize to you for I have let you down. Because of my flaws you have had to do twice as much work." But the water bearer would have nothing of this conversation. "Did you consideration the beautiful wild flowers along the path and did you consideration that these beautiful flowers were only on your side of the path?" That's because I have all the time known of your flaws and I took advantage of them and planted flower seeds on your side of the path and every day you watered them. And these beautiful flowers that you have watered daily grace the master's table. Without you being just the way you are, he would not have this beauty to grace his house." Each of us has our own unique flaws and in our own way we are all cracked pots. We all know we have imperfections and to varying degrees we have shame colse to them. But what we need to remember is that with all our imperfections we create a lot of beauty and a lot of good in the world. perhaps what real courage is all about is not letting our fears and imperfections stop us.
