Here is a treat for you. I will define the two words in the title posting & their truth will set you free if you allow it. It gets even better if you practice & uphold this truth too. The definition will help you from trying too hard, looking for answers outside of yourself, doubting & to appreciate the inner treasure waiting for you without the asking. You will now have a new way to self-assess, measure or gauge yourself & it is personal plus beyond dispute
OPTIMUM: Your best or most favorable efficient state of being under any given circumstances. All of you comes to bear whatever all of you is. No two people or circumstances are alike either. A trouble-free, in-the-moment outpouring of who you are, that is taking it all in & putting it all out as decided by you in the present. It is an ideal or best balance approved by & given by you
MAXIMUM: Is your highest possible amount or extent available to you & for you, of what is going on involving you. It is a form of self-satisfaction & contentment received, a type of pleasing "enough for now" that we acknowledge & control. It is the upper limit of what is given or available. Maximum allows you to ask how much is too much & turn it up or down, as you please
SATISFACTUAL
Optimum has a satisfaction dynamic based on the facts taken place in the moment called satisfactual. We are reminded of this when asked: How are you & you reply, with honesty, very well thank you. Optimum is with you. That's a lot!
LITTLE MORE PLEASE
If one wants more of anything, it can be covered by asking for the maximum available, although this can get dicey. Tylenol "maximum" strength, I understand, wanting maximum spicy food not so much. You wield the portion amounts
WORTHY NOTE: When getting a body massage for the first time by this little lady, I said: Look, I want the maximum work-out. She answered: Are you sure? I said with humor/joking, Miss, hurt me, just rub it out, in & down. Don't hold back. She said O.K.? When done, I couldn't get off the table, stand up or walk. She said you have to drink lots of water. I couldn't even lift the water bottle. Optimum, not maximum next time LOL & ouch too!
MAXIMUM MAKING THE ROUNDS
1. Filling gas tank to the brim. The whole car/garage then smells like gas
2. Extra helping of chow instead of pausing? Bloated & uncomfortable
3. Working overtime so much that you are exhausted? What's the point?
4. Overdoing anything because you can? No respect for what is taking place
OPTIMUM MAKING THE ROUNDS
1. On vacation, doing a little of everything including time out to enjoy & recover
2. Refusing large portions in favor of quality not quantity
3. Genuinely loving someone so they keep wanting it. No smothering/enabling!
4. The "more" is shackled & the "less" is unleashed. You command this & like it
QUESTIONS TO PONDER
1. Which one would your "greed" gene prefer?
2. Which one would "fun" respect more?
3. What looks & feels better on a human being?
4. What promotes being a better steward?
5. Gratitude & appreciation, if given a choice would like which one more?
IT'S A SPIRITUAL TYPE OF MATH
All is going well. You have an inner peace & rest about you. Striving, willfulness & hoarding are nowhere to be found. An automatic, from the heart, continuous song of gratitude is sung. You are a child of the Universe instead of being a spoiled child & the lenses that you see out of into this world & others is full of joy for its purity, clarity, & allowing heart-driven light & reality to guide you
LESS IS MORE
Your resume should have more white space, not filled in to the four corners. Food should be submitted, not devoured. Sex is enjoyed in intervals, making it intimate. TV, reading, socializing, hobbies, & all the rest of allowable, there for the asking, can be had via moderation, sipping & respecting the experience at hand
OPTIMUM or MAXIMUM? Life remains a feast. Bon appétit, and find your personal, custom mix of it all!
