He whai hua ngā whakamārō anga (ngā pae here, ngā pae o runga, me ētahi atu)?
He maha ngā wā ka kite ahau i tētahi e whakarerekē ana i te whakakaha o te tinana (e whakaaturia ana i te pikitia, e tāpiri motuhake ana rānei i te tihi, pērā i te pane tic-tac). E kī ana tētahi i tōku taha he tino "ataahua" te tinana i muri i te tāpiri i tētahi huinga katoa o ngā tokotoko here. He tino pōhēhē ahau, ka taea e ēnei tokotoko whakarewa ngāwari kua mau ki te wiri te whai pānga nui ki te kounga o te taraiwa? He aha ngā pānga kino?
Tuatahi, ka whakarerekē te rangatira o te whakakaha tāpiri i te mahi a te motuka taketake. Nā te mea, ko te pumau o te waka ka ahu mai i te roa o ēnei wāhanga, te matotoru, me te wāhi tāutanga hei whakatutuki. Ka whakarerekē te whakakaha tāpiri i ngā āhuatanga o ngā wāhanga taketake, ka hua ake he huringa o te mahi a te waka. Ko te pātai tuarua, ka pai ake, ka kino ake rānei te mahi a te waka i muri i te tāpiri i te whakakaha tāpiri? Ko te whakautu paerewa: tera pea ka pai ake, tera pea ka kino ake. Ka taea e ngā tāngata ngaio te whakahaere i te mahi kia whanake ki te huarahi pai. Hei tauira, he hoa mahi tā mātou e whakarerekē ana i te motuka. E mōhio ana ia ki te ngoikore o te motuka taketake, ā, e mōhio ana ia me pēhea te whakapakari. Engari ki te kore koe e mōhio he aha koe e hanga ana i ngā huringa, ko te nuinga o te wā ka hanga matapo koe i ngā huringa, he mea e kino ake ana i te pai! Kua whakamatautauria ngā motuka e hokona ana e koe mō ngā rau mano kiromita o te pakari kia kore ai he tūponotanga i te whakamahinga o ngā motuka. Koinā te mahi a ngā miihini i roto i te wheketere motuka. Kāore ngā wāhanga kua whakarerekētia i whai i te whakamātautau mahi tino pakari me te whakamātautau pakari, ā, kāore e taea te whakamana i te kounga. Ki te pakaru, ki te taka rānei i te wā e whakamahia ana, ka tūpono te ora o te rangatira. Kaua e whakaaro he wāhanga whakapakari noa iho tēnei, he wāhanga pakaru, nō te motuka taketake. Kua whakaarohia kētia rānei ka pakaru te tāpiritanga, ka mau ki te whenua, ka puta he aituā nui ki te waka... Hei whakarāpopototanga, he mōrearea ngā whakaurunga anō, ā, me tūpato te whakahaere. Ki te taea e koe te whakahaere i te mahi a te waka mā te whakarei ake (kia mōhio koe, ko te kupu i konei ko te whakahaere, ehara i te huringa, ko te tikanga o te whakahaere ka taea e koe te whakapai ake, te kino ake rānei i te mahi, me te whakahaere tonu i te nui o te huringa), kāti, e ngā tālena, tukuna mai tō reta tono mahi ki tā mātou kamupene i te wā e taea ai, nau mai haere mai.
