And you are enjoying what's in yours - why should you do complex things (either in craft, or career) just to keep up with other people, when you're happy / get satisfaction from what you're doing.<BR/>Sure, you could knit some crazy-cool stuff, but would the complexity and strain of the process (checking the pattern all the time, rechecking you'd done things right) take part of the joy out of it, or add to your sense of achievement? Same with work - do you want to push yourself into situations out of your comfort zone? Would it make you happy to do different things, or add an un-needed stress?<BR/><BR/>It all depends on how much you feel you need to challenge yourself I suppose. And if the results of that challenging are worth it for you.<BR/><BR/>Me, I'm lazy. I do what I know, and enjoy it. Sometimes, I'll push myself, and that's satisfying, but it's not something I want to do very often. This is my rut, and I like it here :)<BR/><BR/>Sorry for the waffling!Dumplinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18035196994771454451noreply@blogger.com
