The art of editing

I had an Italian professor who taught me an interesting phrase – l’arte d’arrangiarsi. Most commonly, it means, the art of getting by, and it’s considered a helpful knack to have in life. I think, however, many people have that flying by the seat of my pants part of life down pretty well. It’s easy to react to things as they come, stumbling through events the best you can.

The real art is in editing. Taking what is and making it better. Always prioritize. Always edit. Words and life mean more well-meant.

Cheers,

jae
