Portrait Of A King (Why We Need Your Feedback)
One upon a time, a proud king commissioned the best artist in the land to paint a portrait of himself.
After some months, the king sent a letter to the artist requesting a response on his progress with the painting. The artist wrote back explaining he needed more time. A year passed, and the king sent a delegation of representatives to the artist’s house to check on his progress. When the delegation arrived, the artist calmly explained that he needed still more time.
Finally, after the second year, the king decided to visit the artist himself with a bodyguard of soldiers, intending the most severe punishment for the artist should he not be ready to present his king with his painting.
On the king’s arrival at the artist’s house, his soldiers angrily beat on the door. The artist carefully creaked the door open, and obviously realized the seriousness of the situation. He requested the king to please sit down
on a chair, and quickly fetched an artist’s easel. The artist began to paint quietly. An hour later, the portrait was complete. The artist turned the easel to face his king. The portrait was perfect, and the king was immediately satisfied.
“If you could paint this in an hour, then why did you wait two years?”, the king cried.
The artist requested whether he could show his king the rest of his house for an explanation. The king followed him as one-by-one he opened the doors of the different rooms, each one filled with practice paintings. One room was full of practice paintings of the king’s hand. Another held practice paintings of the king’s nose.
The artist stated the obvious, “Two years of practice has enabled me to paint your portrait perfectly today”.
What’s the point? We are now practicing to create an employment creation platform. While we practice, help make us better by giving us feedback on this site!
