Making do

When things go awry, we have a choice between “make do” and “make known”.

Some of us work within unexpected constraints and produce magic with what we have. And things often appear to have been planned all along.

Others like to make it known that some problem has occurred. Someone has screwed up, or nature has happened, and “here’s all we could come up with.”

Thing is, we can often make do without drawing attention to all the hurdles we’ve masterfully navigated.

And the people who make do in this quiet way … they’re more likely than not to “make beautiful” while they’re at it.
