Iron Out Those WRINKLES!

 

WRINKLES WRINKLES WRINKLES.  NO sirrrrrs.  We WON'T meddle into anyone's household and domestic concerns. And NOT even to your beauty and aesthetics.  BUT rather, let's peek into the WRINKLES in life because I'm confident and cocksure enough that there is NO single life with NO WRINKLES at all!@#$%?  We can randomly pick any facet in our daily lives and I guarantee you that there are existing WRINKLES here and there.  Worst of all, some of our WRINKLES in life would be [negatively] impactful to the extent that it creates a domino-effect down even into our relationships [even with partners/spouses and your loved ones].  BTW, I learned this long time back and very recently, I heard it from my sister-in-law:  YOU WON'T [really] KNOW A PERSON WELL ENOUGH NOT UNTIL YOU LIVE UNDER ONE ROOF.  Oh Oh Oh, well said📗📙📘

Even in the rough-and-tumble world of NBA basketball where in each ballclub there are one too many movable pieces [those are players leaving the team, joining the team OR even being strategized by coaches to take on role-specific tasks [e.g. Center, Forward, Guard]], the onus is on each of the team's strategists and coaches to identify and recognize those WRINKLES within the team and iron it out.  In the NBA where 82 games covers one full season, coaches are expected to have IRONED THE WRINKLES latest-latest sometime/around the halfway mark of the season, i.e. after around 40-42 games.  Otherwise, that team may be likely in deep '_____' the remainder of the season😡😡😡

So, here's a giveaway question:  Do we expect to have WRINKLE-free lives?  NO sirrrrs, NOT at all.  WHILE in our childhood, many of us learned that we need to be perfect, that we need to look in a particular way, act a particular way, and meet other people's expectations even at the expense of our very own well-being, those impossibly high standards are unrealistic to say the least.  NO one can just approximate being near-perfect✅✅✅

Circumstances, relationships and engagements are NEVER and will NEVER be perfect.  WRINKLES will be there, left-right-front-rear, trust me.  So WHAT's our fix?  Tweak and fine-tune as far and as much as it is feasible.  NOTE that we're saying AS MUCH AS FEASIBLE.  WHY do we highlight FEASIBLE?  It's because some of us tend to either give up OR simply ignore the need to adapt OR at the very least, to tweak and fine-tune stuff✅✅✅

Our takeaway:  Let's run some WHAT IFs here.  WHAT IF you ignore those WRINKLES either in your engagements, relationships OR interactions?  Sadly, I cam frankly tell you that you will MISS the boat, MISS that chance to right the wrongs OR at the very least, to smoothen any rough edges, trim stuff that seem to protrude and miss that sage advice that WHEN we're in a standoff, an impasse, consider MEETING HALFWAY, that give-and-take kind of thing?  YES, let's endeavor to IRON OUT THOSE WRINKLES [in life]👍👍👍
