3D Printing Upgrades and Downgrades as a Metaphor for Life
![2018-05-10 14.10.54.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaKNny52RYWx6eDiCnAqdxgPKNvZmsTWnAwDMUWTJmv9u/2018-05-10%2014.10.54.jpg)

It seems every time I make an upgrade to one of my machines it downgrades something else!

If that is not a metaphor for life I don't know what is ;)

The thing is in many things, not just making and creating, you have to take a step back in order to take a step forward.

Even in health we witness the same thing:

> A [healing crisis](https://www.google.ca/search?q=healing+crisis), or healing reaction, is a temporary worsening of symptoms that occurs when the body is going through the process of healing itself through the elimination of toxins.

All we can do is

1. Focus on the practice and the journey, not the destination.
1. Know it WILL get better
1. Don't think in terms of success and failure, but play and experimentation!

I just got inspired by these:

* Focus on the practice and the journey, not the destination.
* Know it WILL get better
* Don't think in terms of success and failure, but play and experimentation!
