The diligent type
Lots of collectors nowadays. I think we are brought up to be collectors.
Kids are collecting good grades, in sports they are collecting scores, and people build careers by collecting titles. There are of course those who are collecting goals and they happily check them out as they achieve them. Then they are collecting rewards and trophies.
Collectors are diligent, reliable, busy and mediocre, since in the middle of the number game persistent mediocrity becomes a valued style element.
Not everybody is happy being busy collecting. Some people feel out of place in a collectors’ environment.
They are capable of perceiving value. They organize their time according to priorities of value. They find time for what’s important and they take the effort to perform their activities the way it is appropriate, with class and style.
It’s difficult for the two types to live amicably side by side.
Harmony comes only from hierarchical ordination whereby quantity is subordinated to quality….otherwise war conditions prevail and horizontally the numbers tend to win.
