My life’s gained quite a bit of overall activity as of late, and in the midst of all this activity I’m reminded of an Ernest Hemingway quote that I’ve loved for a very long time, which is that we must “Never confuse movement with action.”
Hemingway was famous for having a very active lifestyle. He traveled all over the globe. He reported on the Spanish Civil War. He went on safari in Africa. He interacted with countless lives, had countless adventures, basically any words I write can only bring forth bland images of his vibrant life well-lived. I could only dream of living quite so active a life, but I’m sure some people out there will be blessed enough to live just as fully as Hemingway did.
I’ve done my best to stay in a state of doing in my life, I just try to stay moving as much as I can. But there are moments where I feel this strong impulse to take a step back, take a deep breath, and remind myself that anything I do should be for a productive purpose. That I shouldn’t just be doing things for the sake of doing things. For the sake of established habit. I should be taking actions for the sake of improving myself as an individual, and doing what I can to improve upon those actions to optimize their benefit.
But there are sudden moments where I find myself wondering if it’s all futility. If I’m just Sisyphus pushing a rock up a hill, and that life is just a strange punishment for some original sin of existing. Some joke of a Higher Power on us all.
I’ve been in a state of constant happy movement, but I had a weird, sleepy, semi-objective look at my life today while I was waking up. A rampage of questions bombarded my groggy mind. Am I taking the steps I need to take with my life? Is this a place from which I can springboard into something more? Will things shift? I feel okay about the trajectory brought on by my life’s more recent actions, but in my more introspective moments, questions like that haunt me. I’m sure they haunt most of us, but maybe it’s just me. I hope it’s just me. I’d wish that type of sudden hesitation on no one.
I’m not advocating second-guessing every other step you take in life, nobody can live like that. He who hesitates plays a dangerous game. But I do think it’s best, in the midst of heightened movement in life, to occasionally take a step back and try to ask yourself hard questions about your actions. To see where you’re going to make sure you’re moving in a good direction.
But when you know you’re doing what you need to do in your life, and you’re taking productive actions that bring you forward, and that state of action brings you joy, there’s only one real option from that point onward.
Push harder every damn day.
I’m so busy sometimes that I beg for a moment to sit back and enjoy it.

Don’t let it get you down! In actual fact, Sisyphus was being punished by Zeus for his wrongdoings, so theoretically, he deserved his fate. The French philosopher Sartre said that we should concentrate not on the bit where Sisyphus is pushing the rock up the hill, but rather, we should imagine his pleasure as he walks back down the slope, taking in the view, looking at the birds and trees etc etc. Anyway, it’s a thought!

Good day Mr. Relentos, about to get up and start my day, I was mulling over e mails and account balances on my computer, trying to keep my mind busy as it is Vet day for my dog. A test for Cushings disease, but I do not like to leave her at the vet and she must stay for three to four hours. I happened upon this, your most recent post, and could relate to it. At times I wonder if all my education, all my thinking about the world and all the “whys” that come with it, have enriched my life…or just complicated it. i like the imagination aspect of ifwknifton’s post, and thanks to all for their enlightening words above. I can see, now that I am retired, that life is totally what we make of it from second to second, the responsibility is tiring at first and something I previously thought fate would take care of.
If anyone has a nifty, brilliant, simple equation on how to feel fulfilled about life on a daily basis, please post it. Thanks Oscar for starting my day out with a smile! Anita

My mother always told me that the only thing worse than making a wrong decision is making no decision at all.

Now I don’t think. I simply take the next logical step, which also encompasses backtracking if need be, but hey even rivers wind to the sea.

Movement is a trap we all fall into. Busyness makes us feel productive, even when we produce nothing. Wanting your actions to be truely productive is a nice sentiment, but be weary you don’t fall into an idea of productivity or self improvement that others has imposed on you to their benefit. Don’t regret activities done for their own sake. There is value in just being in the moment.
LikeLiked by 1 person
I completely agree, busyness does give us comfort in the illusion of action. It’s oftentimes hard to differentiate between the two, and a lot of the times we don’t know the difference between action and movement until years down the road when we see where our movements or actions have taken us. And that’s very true, there is innate personal value in many different actions and there is value in just being in the moment like you said, and I’m in no way against that, but I am certainly partly speaking out against pressures which others impose upon you under the guise of helping you. And I do believe there are certain actions that can be good within the moment in moderation, but if done in excess they become a detriment to your living a fulfilling life. I may not be articulating that as well as I would like I apologize for that haha but thank you so much for the comment!!

Hi Oscar, you sly fox. You really know how to reach people, and your writing is great. Of course not everyone is an introspective personality. With some people it’s always, “ship the anchor, and full steam ahead!” I am a big believer in “failing your way to success”. Perfectionism is paralyzing and becomes an excuse for not really trying. It’s also a sign that someones ego is too concerned with the opinions of others. If we are engaged in an activity we find personally joyful, then it is only ourselves that we have to please, and anyone else we make happy is simply a bonus. If I rounded up a thousand publishers and had them all lined up in a row, and told you that 3 out of the thousand would publish your next book, if you just asked them to, how long do you think it would take you to find those three? Writers need to encourage each other because if you’re not a writer then guess what,…your a critic! And we have enough of those out there, don’t we?

It could be said that Hemingway’s constant forward motion was in an effort to stimulate his writing through his experiences. It was done with that sole purpose in mind and was to please no-one but himself. That could be construed as selfish. Surely it’s far better to travel but to occasionally pause to be sure that what you’re experiencing is providing you with personal growth and hopefully bettering the world by your actions.
We surely have to consider the wellbeing of those we travel with or towards rather than out own self satisfaction.
Maybe our journeys won’t always be as exciting as those of some writers, but they can have the same or higher value if we gave them thought.
