Goldilocks
Finding “just right” is often the challenging part of what we do.
Not too tight, not too loose.
Not too technical, not too general.
Not too formal, not too casual.
Not too bold, not too passive.
Not too brief, not too extensive.
Much of our practice lives on a spectrum. Whether it’s handwriting, or drawing, or cooking, or acting, or dancing — anything that involves our dexterity will also call for our judgement.
And we don’t always find “just right” the first time. Often, we need to test the edges; to move too far one way, then too far the other … until we discern or intuit where the work wants to be.
