The Story Behind

This black and white print is a part of the series, “Lessons Learned from Six-year Olds”. It is important to think clearly in order to make proper decisions. I remember as a child getting lost in multiple instructions given by the teacher and getting confused about the assignment on hand. Even as an adult, sometimes the choices are numerous and confusing. So simplify things by deconstructing, visualizing where you want to be and then acting upon the chosen strategy.

The inspiration for this print came from the following true incident.  One day Shaela, my six year old grand daughter came home after her skating lesson. When I asked her what she had learned that day, she said she learned to skate backwards.  I asked her how would one do that. What transpired after that blew me away. She said, “Wait!” She brought a piece of paper and pencil and proceeded to explain the process.  She put an “X” on the paper and said, “This is me.” You can see the X on the print. Then she drew some “C”s and said, “All you do is make “C”s forward and backwards.” She had deconstructed and simplified all the instructions given by the coach, had visualized in her mind what she wanted as results and then it was a matter of simply going ahead and doing it. The message was clear. If only we could deconstruct the steps and visualize what we wish to accomplish, the actualization would be easy!

Knowing where one wants to go, setting the goal and focusing on it are important in order to succeed. If one can eliminate distractions and stay focused on a single goal, success is not hard to attain. Sometimes it takes a young six-year old to remind us of this. It is based on a true story.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
