How to Shift Out of the Midlife Malaise
The Art of Manliness
Balancing Process and Productivity in Middle Age
As individuals age, the shift towards focusing on the process rather than the end product becomes important. This does not mean completely eliminating goals or projects in middle age. It is crucial to maintain a balance between striving for completion and valuing the journey. In life, there is a dual focus on both finishing tasks and the process behind them. One's focus should be on what they care about the most - whether it is the outcome or the act of engaging with the process. While outcomes matter, it is equally important to value the process and the journey itself. The ideal attitude lies in finding a balance between the T-Lick (product) and AT-Lick (process) sides of tasks. Prioritizing both aspects without being overly fixated on the end goal can lead to a more fulfilling and valuable life.
