This weeks reading – The clarity of the Craftsman
The two different approaches on thinking about your working life
Passion mindset – focusing on what the world can offer, swamp of ambiguous and unanswerable questions
Craft mans mindset– focusing on what you can offer the world, offers clarity
What kind of mindset do i have right now and which of those two mindsets do i want to have? From reading the story about the guitarist and all, the craft mans mindset does seem more preferable. Digging one thing that you love so much you become an expert at it. However If by having a crafts man mindset i’d receive clarity and i won’t be looking at any other options past opportunities to explore something other than whatever i’m mastering then I don’t think i’d want to. How do you just choose one thing and decide to love it? Because even when you do think you love it you might not and you might change your mind so i think its good to be open to what the world offers as well as doing what you love to do.
Passion mindset or craft mans mindset. Whichever mindset it doesn’t matter to me as long as i can
‘create something meaningful and presenting it to the world’
Because this is exactly what I’d like to do and what I’d like to learn how to do! So i’ll practice really hard and then i’ll be..
so good that they can’t ignore you
