Life As Patterns And Patterns
Businesswoman typing on computer at desk. Square shot.
The young woman sat in her cubicle, staring at the computer screen. She had been working on the same project for weeks, and she was starting to feel frustrated. She had hit a roadblock, and she didn’t know how to move forward.
She took a deep breath and tried to focus. She closed her eyes and imagined the project as a series of patterns. She saw the different parts of the project as nodes, and she saw the connections between the nodes as links.
She opened her eyes and looked at the computer screen again. She saw the project in a new light. She saw the patterns that she had been missing. She saw the connections that she had not been able to see before.
She started to work on the project again, but this time she had a new sense of purpose. She knew what she needed to do. She knew how to move forward.
She worked for hours, and by the end of the day, she had made significant progress. She had solved the roadblock that had been holding her back. She was on her way to completing the project.
As she was leaving the office, she thought about the patterns that she had seen. She realized that life is just a series of patterns. Every choice that we make, every interaction that we have, creates a new pattern.
These patterns can be small or large, good or bad. They can change our lives in ways that we can’t even imagine.
The young woman realized that she was in control of her own destiny. She could choose the patterns that she wanted to create. She could choose the kind of life that she wanted to live.
She walked out of the office with a new sense of hope. She knew that she could achieve anything she set her mind to.
The young woman’s story is a reminder that life is a series of patterns. Every choice that we make, every interaction that we have, creates a new pattern. These patterns can change our lives in ways that we can’t even imagine.
We are in control of our own destiny. We can choose the patterns that we want to create. We can choose the kind of life that we want to live.
So, what kind of patterns do you want to create? What kind of life do you want to live? The choice is yours.
