After ten years of apprenticeship, Tenno . . . went to visit the famous master Nan-in. When he walked in, the master greeted him with a question, "Did you leave your wooden clogs and umbrella on the porch?"
"Yes," Tenno replied.

"Tell me," the master continued, "did you place your umbrella to the left of your shoes, or to the right?"

Tenno did not know the answer, and realized that he had not yet attained full awareness. So he became Nan-in's apprentice and studied under him for ten more years.

Do you know the hex and RGB values of your background? Is that image sitting in your root directory still being used in the site? Where are the pages for your sub sections?

Full awareness does not come from blind study alone. It comes from careful organization. Begin by keeping clear notes on your design: note the RGB and hex value of every color you use; if there is more than one page in a section, put them all in a folder; have an images folder. Organize.

In organization, there is clarity. In clarity, there is awareness. This is the Way.
