The right amount


The degree to which something is a lot or a little has a huge impact on the way issues are perceived, managed and planned. Adequate amount is at the core of most problems, or solutions. How much is enough? Enough for what? When is something good enough for a particular purpose? Who would be good enough for what? One single answer that suits most of the previous questions is quite simplistic: just the right amount. However, the right amount depends on who, where, when, why and how. So it is not simple at all.
One has to formulate the right question if wishes to come up with a proper answer. The right amount is more important than any other value or issue every time one is to avoid a certain amount of difficulty or trouble. The right amount paves the way for achievement and also sets the amount of time required to succeed. A small amount or a tremendous amount can either be challenging or demanding. Adequacy has proved to be crucial for the equation. An easy way of comprehending to what extent the right amount is central is to think about amounts of land, money, tax, trouble, food, funding, even public anger or personal satisfaction.
Tremendous amount of noise, unbelievable amount of food, small amount of funding from the state, can be quite disturbing kinds of amounts. Amount of sand, a dangerous amount of radioactivity, large amounts of chocolate, payments limited to a certain amount, total amount raised, a considerable amount for only a few hours’ work, allowed amounts or prohibited amount, a significant amount of anger among a group of people, the same amount of time for leisure and duties, spend more than half the actual amount, an amazing amount of interactions, could all be awesome, disastrous or anything in between.
Amount of protection, amount of pressure, amounts of nutritious food, amount of resources to deal with, amount of procedures, amount of training, enough amount, satisfactory amount for a particular task, the amount needed for a general objective, they are all pursuit of adequacy.
Just the right amount, at the right place, in the right moment, for the right reason. One has to make sure to understand the right amount. One can even underestimate or overestimate the amount, but should not rely solely on the amount itself. One has to adhere to the core issue if is to accomplish the right amount.
