What If Society Rewarded Mistakes More Than Perfection?


Imagine, a world where the pressure to be perfect was eliminated. Instead, you were praised every time you messed up. Forgot your work? Clapping. Fell in a race? Instant medal. 

In this world, perfection would be boring. Unnoticed. The safer option. The real winners would be the ones who took the risks, who fail loudly and keep going anyway.

Maybe the museums would not show masterpieces that are perfect, but the masterpieces that went wrong. Maybe the job interviews would ask for a list of all your mistakes, all your failures. 

But also, maybe people would stop trying to improve. Although, they would stop being afraid to try, they wouldn't strive for better. And yet, it would make people so much more confident. 

So, would you like to live in a world where mistakes were trophies instead of embarrasments?

What If You And Your Best Friend Could Meet In The Same Dream Every Night?

Image
Imagine falling asleep and knowing you'll see your best friend again. Not in a call, not in real life but in a shared dream.  Every night, you'd share adventures in a world only you two could reach. Floating cities, endless buildings, long beaches and whatever your imagination may invent.  You'd laugh and have fun together and then talk about it tomorrow, in school.  But, what if, one of you doesn't fall asleep one night? Does the other wait in the dream wondering if the link is broken or if the other just forgot? Maybe asking for an explanation the next morning.  Maybe dreams are more than escape. Maybe they are the one place where you only need belief.    All scenarios described are fictional and purely imaginative.

One day, you are trying to solve riddles of the stars. Another day, you are trying to decode memories to pass your finals.  And what happens if you fail? You don't wake up until you get it right.  Would you want to go to dream-school?   All scenarios described are fictional and purely imaginative.

What if, for a few seconds, an alternate version of you, slipped into your world and you slipped into theirs?  Maybe that's why, sometimes, on certain days, your aren't yourself.
