Why are you doing what you do?

Because you're just doing what everyone else is doing, because you have to, because you must, because that's the way it's always been done... or because you choose, and couldn't bear doing anything else.

It's reasonably easy to create that sort of compelling action when it comes to doing that which intrigues and fascinates you, but it's attained a new level of mastery when you're able to consistently bring that mindset to all you do.

But that without a light relevant clarity of intent and a carefully [full of care] developed personal philosophy is likely to be just as damaging, if not more so, than doing what you do reluctantly or unconsciously.

And by consistently I mean, through all circumstances and at all times.
