duanetoops,

We talk about achievement. About goals. Setting them. Reaching them. About getting somewhere, becoming something. But what happens the morning after? What happens the next day? After the parade, the party. After they sweep the confetti away. What happens when the big moment fades? Maybe it's never been greatness we were after, but a baseline standard of enoughness brought to our days.

@duanetoops @bookstodon “A baseline standard of roughness.” Yes. Achievement not for itself or the goal but because it’s expected.

duanetoops,

@Cara @bookstodon well said!
