Let's, for example, look at all those cubicle dwellers. Like in Dilbert's ( http://www.dilbert.com/ ) cartoon strip. This cartoon's most important feature is to express what those in working in workplaces can't say. It's
main reasons behind
success of Dilbert.
Why do you think are all those average cubicle dwellers ( http://www.dilbert.com/ ) go through their daily grind?
What are they trying to accomplish through all their frustrations?
Not much they'll be able tu use themselves because their boss will rake most of
credit. At least according to
script: http://www.dilbert.com/
What then are all those cubicle dwellers running after?
Why is Dilbert and
others, wasting their lives in that stupid meaningless environment ????
Security!
Yes. Dilbert and his colleagues accomplish all what they can in hope it will maintain their security.
And in some places you'll even have people accomplish their duty straight out of fear.
A Paradox
Yet, there's an annoying paradox here.
Back here do you think
computers
real world Dilberts work on,
car they drive,
television and radio sets they listen to, are results of mainly fear and search for security?
Certainly not! They're mainly
result of curiosity, creativity, intelligence, change, interest, ambition and so on.
The paradox is that a majority is looking for its security in a world created with
creativity of others...
It is something very promiscuous to live in fear surrounded with
success of others.
So this majority is performing their duty before reaching success later.
Which is a sad thing. Everyone has large resources of creativity, enough to be entitled to live out of them.
But to live out of his creativity, one has to learn how to take his own risks. This is pretty much choosing
right goals. And to take risks only on matters relevant to
current goal at hand.
Those two skills come with practice. That's why it's important to practice every day. And to start today.
Getting back to
beginning in this article, what candidate for living out of creativity would you think would be better than realizing your lifetime dreams ?
None.
So, realizing lifetime dreams looks like a very legitimate candidate for
definition of duty.
And
world would certainly be a far better place if more people did so.
