Many of us get ourselves stuck in a situation requiring repetition, monotony and banal movement. Think about something you’ve had to do a thousand times or even a hundred times. Data entry. Licking envelopes. Picking four-leaf clovers. Opening every e-mail to make sure you don’t mistake something important for junk.
What do you get out of it in the end? Is it just a task completed and you move on to something new? Or do you look back at a job well done and consider how it can be better done next time.
Often times you’ll realize it can be better done next time by not being done at all.
