Do What You LOVE

In my readings, many times (when I see people who are "stuck" and not able to so easily move forward) I will ask people what they "REALLY want to do"

and they will tell me "I want a good job, I want more money, I want a bigger house etc etc etc"

and I will say "no, that is what you want to see happen; what do you want to do?"

and, again, "I want to get a better job or have more freedom at work or be self-employed" or some variation on that theme

and, once more, I will say "that is what you want to see HAPPEN -- but you can't control what happens. You can only control what you focus on"

what they are describing is a possible RESULT of an action, it is not the action NECESSARY to make the result POSSIBLE

all action is, ultimately, an outgrowth of desire

even if that is "my bladder is full, I would like it to be less full" . . . therefore, finding a toilet or a tree is on my immediate list of things I need to DO

focusing on outcomes without a specific drive is too watered-down, it brings watered-down results

if you're in love, and the boy or girl you love is across town, waiting for you -- and it is raining or snowing or whatever, it doesn't matter

if you want to go -- you'll make the effort

if someone you don't care about says come over, well you would, but it's raining, so maybe later

this is kind of the secret (I think) to making things happen

when you're in love, you don't give a fuck if it's raining
