Accomplishments

If you dig a big hole, and then you take all the dirt you displaced and put it back in the hole, you’ve done a lot of work.

But you have accomplished anything? Have you improved anything?

 

Now let’s say you dig a big hole in somebody’s flower garden. Something pretty with rows of cutesy little flowers.

Then you take all the dirt you displaced and put it back in the hole.

You’ve done a lot of work. You can even say you’ve accomplished something. You’ve taken things a step back.

This isn’t progress, and it isn’t helpful.
