The work is never just “the work” | Are.na

I’ve recently been exploring the metaphor of work as trace – that it isn’t so much about what we put out into the world as how we put it out; that the thing we really ought to care about, the thing that ultimately matters, is the intention from which the work emerges. The rest is all mirror, representation, resemblance.

But being productive and being organized are not always the same thing. The trap with organizing is that it can sometimes be an excuse not to ship things.
