Robots are wonderful machines. There are times like today where I look at all that has to be done and wish I could flip a switch and turn into a robot.

I could fly through all that I have to do, in less than a fraction of the time.

How? With my robotic capacity, that’s how.

I’d be a special robot with the most advanced Get’er Done chip and a WillPower 3.0. And while we’re at it, a giant Flux Capacitor on my chest.

Unfortunately, as much as we might want to be, you and I aren’t robots. We’re far from it.

• We get distracted
• We don’t always get it right the first time
• Our timing is off
• We misinterpret things
• We forget
• We make decisions based on emotions
• We get tired
• We break commitments
• We make mistakes
• We aren’t perfect

While I wish I might have more robotic qualities, I’m glad I’m not a robot. Because the things that keep us from awesome robotic qualities are the things that make us unique and better than our hardwired hombres.

• We have the ability to learn, grow and adapt
• We can override the system
• We can love
• We can choose
• We can change our mind
• We can think outside the box

So the next time you wish you had an iron will and the concentration to last a full work day, remember that it’s a small price to be pay for being a creative being.

Something to think about anyway.
