A full-featured, complete day might incorporate the following:
(1) doing
(2) learning
(3) creating
I like to think of it as empirical, rational, and phenomenological.
Or perhaps inductive, deductive … and abductive?
Bottom up, top down, and …? Inside-out-and-around? And then there’s the famouse St. Francis quote:
“He who works with his hands is a laborer.
He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman.
He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist.”
And I managed to accomplish all three today in some shape or form. And regarding the middle, though I didn’t get to all the learning I wanted, I did manage to read two short Schnitzler plays — “Gallant Cassian” and “Literature” — that I’d never read before.
A short day, but a success.
