Do you mind digging ditches?
“Not if the pay is good.”
Alright, then dig this ditch. It should take a few days.
“OK, the ditch is dug.”
Do you want more work?
“Sure.”
Then fill up the ditch.
“Are you sure?”
Yes.
“OK, it’s your money.”
(A few days later) “OK, that’s done, now what.”
Dig it up again.
“What?!”
Do you want the job or not?
“Well, sure, but this is silly. All I’m doing is digging and filling the same ditch over and over.”
Yes.
So why say this.
Our work may seem repetitive but we see it as digging deeper / longer.
Not as dig, refill, dig, refill, etc.
Whatever you’re doing in life has meaning to you or you would not be doing it.
Then again, maybe it used to have meaning yet you find yourself still doing it.
Hmmm, review time?

168 Creating Desire – 172 Sky or Steel? – 210 Second Thing Ça vous irait de creuser des fosses?
“Pas si la paie est bonne.”
Très bien, alors creusez ce fossé. Ça devrait prendre quelques jours.
“OK, le fossé est creusé.”
Voulez-vous plus de travail?
“Certainement.”
Alors remplissez le fossé.
“Êtes-vous certain?”
Oui.
“OK, c’est votre argent.”
(Quelques jours plus tard) “OK,c’est fait, maintenant qu’est-ce que je fais.”
Creusez-le encore.
“Quoi?!”
Voulez-vous ce travail ou non?
“Oui, certainement, mais c’est stupide. Ce que je vais faire c’est de creuser et de remplir le même fossé encore et encore.”
Oui.
Donc pourquoi dire ça?
Notre travail semble répétitif mais nous le voyons comme ceci : creuser plus profondément et plus loin.
Pas de creuser, remplir, creuser, remplir, etc.
Quoi que ce soit que vous fassiez dans la vie, cela a de la signification pour vous, sinon vous ne le feriez pas.
Ou bien, peut être que cela avait une signification cependant vous le faites encore.
Hmmm, le temps de réviser?
