When the priorities are askew
Happiness is to pursue the ideal carrot ideal “for whom? For each of us! Not because of what dictates the need or desire of others, but that which comes from our inner desire for self-actualization. Pursue what we love makes us grow and find the path to that goal satisfactions intermediate energize and motivate us to keep running.
Have a clear goal, we know where is the number one ingredient, otherwise we could go any way and never reach the correct destination. Choose this goal is dependent on what is important, our priorities. But what happens when you have time running in one direction and suddenly become unattractive destination?
What if suddenly I love what I do? There is nothing to regret. In fact is standard in the world. Over time circumstances change and we also changed the world would be boring if everything were constant! Energy is created through change and movement. It’s something we can not resist.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi would say (yes, it is unspeakable, but that does not diminish the brilliance) that flow and attain the state of bliss is necessary to find the peak between challenge and ability. This means finding work or activity that represents the greatest challenge to what we can do.
