Some of us are more grasshoppers, some more like the ants. Some can live in the present, some can think and worry only about the future.

If you're always an ant you might never get around to living. Your whole life could be consumed by planning, by risk avoidance. If you are a grasshopper you may be blindsided by winter, never understanding why sometimes you have enough and other times you starve.

I lean more towards "ant" (shocker I know, wow) and really it took me a long time to understand what I could learn from "grasshoppers" -- the fact that I at first thought such people could teach me *nothing* meant that what I have discovered I can learn is vast and it's taking a long time to process it all.

I am going about it systematically. So I will miss nothing. Soon I will fully understand how to implement "spontaneity" and the best applications thereof.
