Battling Perception
Why do we get so excited/annoyed by the idea of something? A seed can internally manifest into a tree before you’ve considered the reality. Your mind will always fight to make reality fit with your perception of something. Negative or Positive.
Like when “Project Glass” was released people assured us that it’d improve, that it was just an alpha and would dramatically change. Although this could still be the case, these people have no idea how it’ll progress or what is being developed but they are so in love with the perception that they’ve created since they first saw the Glass conceptualisation video that they are sure it will eventually happen. You see this trend with places, stocks and people. Every decision is clearer and moment is better in retrospect.
Honestly, I’m diluting my line of thinking with the technology simile. This post isn’t intended to be career or technology themed. I’ve been realising how important it is to get over your perceptions, that the more you think and wonder about the idea of something the further you push yourself from the reality.
