«You have thought about it, you have imagined it in great details, you have chosen it and you are determined to do everything you can to get it. Your vision is so clear you can almost smell it, hear it, touch it. You are ready, you want it more than anything… But WHY hasn’t it manifested itself yet?

The “it” I’m referring to can be anything. Maybe, for you, it’s a baby, a job, a lover, a big break… In any case, the thing is: this planet is not one of those where we instantly get what we desire (I know such planets exist.

And if we feel uncomfortable in a situation, or in a certain aspect of our life, it often is because it doesn't “fit” us. We are trying to swim against the natural flow of our personality, of our needs, of our values...»

«...the way I see things, motivation is akin to the sap that runs in the tree: it keeps the tree alive—in fact, it's essential to it—but it's useless if the tree (our objective) is rooted in poor, unhealthy ground. It's not our motivation that makes the objective real, it's the other way around: when our goals are healthy, the drive to take action flows naturally.
