Physics Is Not A Popularity Contest...

Physics is not a popularity contest;

It is really a self-improvement contest.

-Paul Whiting
(a.k.a., Poet, Artist and Philosopher)
"I am the poet who thinks that he knows it!"

My Writing About Physics Being A Self-Improvement Contest: Physics is not a popularity contest; it is really a self-improvement contest. –Paul Whiting (written March 27th, 2015, revised October 18th, 2021 and revised September 2nd, 2022)

My Writing About Comparing Yourself To Others: Do not compare yourself to how others are: instead, compare yourself to how you used to be. –Paul Whiting (written April 12th, 2016 and revised August 25th, 2022)

My Writing About Validating Your Own Soul: It is not the job of other souls to validate your soul; it is not your job to validate other souls; it is your job—and every other soul's job—to validate your own soul. –Paul Whiting (written August 26th, 2016, revised October 16th, 2021, revised April 30th, 2022 and revised October 17th, 2022)

My Philosophical Notes:

The reason that I wrote this prose can be summed up with the following statement: "Physics is not a popularity contest; it is really a self-improvement contest."

And this prose was also published on my "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer" blog (please see the hyperlink below for the blog), since I feel that the message in this prose applies to the message that I am trying to convey through "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer."

This prose was written in Portland, Oregon.
