진정한 몰두를 위해서는 자신으로부터의 혁명이 필요하다. 무엇을 성취하고자 할 때, 충분한 재능을 가졌는가는 부차적인 문제다. 문제는 우리 삶을 바꾸고, 동시에 우리 삶을 지탱해나갈 수 있을 만큼 몰두할 용기를 가졌는가, 하는 것이다.

What the U.S. Can (and Can’t) Learn From Israel’s Ban on Ultra-Thin Models
On March 19, the Israeli parliament passed legislation ubiquitously known in the country as the Photoshop laws. The new regulations on the fashion and advertising industry ban underweight models as determined by Body Mass Index and regulate Photoshop usage in media and advertising. Abroad, the laws have opened new discussion on a government’s right to intervene in these two industries.
The legislation focuses on two elements of the fashion industry that have long drawn criticism for their effects on women and, especially, girls: ultra thin models and the use of Photoshop to make women appear impossibly thin in advertisements. The measure has been controversial within Israel for raising the question of where free speech bumps up against the fashion industry’s responsibility — and its possible harm — to its customers’ psychological wellbeing. It has also raised the question of whether other countries might consider similar measures to address what many activists consider a root cause of an epidemic of anorexia and other eating disorders.

“Maybe Israel’s BMI-indexing, Photoshop-regulating law isn’t right for the U.S., with our established speech protections and anti-regulation sensitivities. But, if not that, then what?”
If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.
(James 1:5-8)
