“If you dig a hole
and it’s in the wrong place,
digging it deeper
isn’t going to help.”
— Seymour Chwast
holes hiding acorns
buried treasures without maps
tenuous at best

This is a good reminder. I think we often reflexively “try harder” when something doesn’t work, when taking a step back and re-evaluating the situation would be more appropriate. 🙏
