Being at peace with mistakes, overcoming adversity and striving for the best version of yourself is good for the soul. As you know, life goes by fast. It’s just a blink. We all want to get to a point where we’re aware of living a life that’s fulfilled. The essence of Zen is that we could live to be 100 or it could all be over tomorrow. We can take nothing for granted and must use hindsight to serve us, not haunt us. We’ll feel gratified if this activates you to reach a little further, try a little harder, and if it disrupts any complacency that slows your self-actualization goal. Artists will tell you that a work of art is never completed, it’s abandoned, which means that we come to the end of the road and move on to something else.

This is an excerpt of the newly-released book ‘The Blue Square Method’ by Duncan MacPherson and Chris Jeppesen.
