Obsession Management February 24th, 2009 by Hang
For some people, life is about passions to be discovered, for me, it’s a series of obsessions that need to be managed. I’ve installed a bar in my room a few days ago and I’m currently in the process of massively geeking out about cocktails. Already, I’ve got a list a mile long of things I want to try: Exotic simple syrups, infused liquers, home made bitters, custom made ice, evaporative reduced grenadine…
This is a common pattern with me, if I choose not to become involved with something, I’m quite happy to keep my distance and only maintain an educated layman’s perspective on things. But if I dive in too deep, the only solution is to reach the very bottom of that knowledge pool and become somewhat of an expert.
This is the reason I refuse to touch coffee, I’m sure it tastes great and could become a great love but I have a sense of how deep a knowledge is required and I simply don’t have the time or money to pursue it to the degree that would satisfy me.
