So true...

[Dylan Jardon 🌈 @DylanJardon]

"Perfection is impossible.

In the 1,526 singles matches I played in my career, I won almost 80% of those matches.

But what percentage of points did I win?

54%

In other words, even top ranked tennis players win barely more than half the points they play.

When you lose ever second point on average, you learn not to dwell on every shot.

You teach yourself to think:
'Okay, I double faulted...it's only a point.'
'Okay, I came to the net and I got passed again...it's only a point.'

Even a great shot, an overhead backhand smash that ends up on ESPN's top 10 playlist – that too is just a point.

Here's why I'm telling you this.

When you're playing a point, it has to be the most important thing in the world. And it is.

But when it's behind you, it's behind you.

This mindset is crucial – because it frees you to fully commit to the next point with intensity, clarity, and focus."

Had you asked Medieval or Bauhaus designers to create an air conditioning unit, they would have seen it as a chance to make the world more beautiful, even in some small way.

We, however, have chosen to believe that some things simply must be ugly — and try to hide them instead:

Your periodic reminder that less ice at the Arctic is consistent with a weaker jet stream that allows cold air to drift down into the Great Plains.

The frigid temps you're experiencing happen BECAUSE of a warming planet, not in spite of it.

Stunning 2,000 year old bowl.

Roman glass bowl-c. 40-50 AD
This fabulous cobalt blue ribbed bowl was made nearly 2000 years ago and is from near the ancient Roman city of Augusta Treverorum. With opaque white decoration, it is likely that the ribs were made..(1/2)
