To lay tiles on the floor
You will get ten different degrees of perfection
From worst with tiles misaligned in all directions
To best with all tiles in perfect lines
Suppose all ten are equally intelligent
Then what is the difference?
The difference is the degree of laziness
Lack of motivation
Lack of patience
And indifference
It is not that anyone cannot do a perfect job
But some people just do not want to do it
Unless there is some reward
Or punishment
Without any incentive
It is lifelong mediocrity
In anything and everything
Just enough to get by
The problem occurs
When such people encounter
Those that demand perfection
And they do not understand why
Why perfection is demanded
Just as they do not understand
Why the universe is so big
