Rough Draft, Final Draft
Just when the caterpillar thought her life was over, she began to fly.
When you look at life sometimes, isn’t it the most beautiful and complicated process to ever happen?
You are mostly lost in the uncertainties of doing things that won’t matter, but surprisingly, those non-substantive things weave the way to the final draft.
When one is a little kid, getting ready for school, one hardly understands the purpose of learning “a, b, c” but still does: Not as a choice, but as a necessity.

Just like a writer who is never really impressed by the work he produces… Even in the final draft, the final chapter always seems imperfect and has scope for improvement.

A key solution lies in valuing both “the rough draft” and “the final draft.”
It is the rough drafts that prepare you for the final one. And when you reach the final one, there is another book, another chapter, and another page waiting to be written by you.
Focus on improving every word of your life, becoming a human in the true sense by finding value in everything you do, and giving back to the world.
As Shakespeare once said,
And all the people are merely players; they have their exits and their entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts.
Just focus on playing the best, most indispensable part of any role.
After all, after every rough draft, there is a perfect final draft.
