Eyes on the Prize, or Eyes on the Path?

7/11/2016

Or in West's case 'eyes' on the food.
For most people, the prize is the end result, the goal, the mythical place where all of our dreams become fulfilled and we are complete as a human being. Really? Then what? We win this prize, reach this “place” and then the work ends? It’s the path that precious, not the prize. The path goes on; teaches us about struggle and consistency and fortitude. Prizes symbolize an end game or completion. For me: I don’t want the work to end; I don’t want to be complete. I embrace the struggle and the path to greatness.

Always focus on your effort, instead of the results of that effort. If we always fixate on results, we miss the mark in terms of the real beauty and satisfaction that emanates from real effort. There is wisdom in this for sure. Place your emphasis on your effort and results happen without stress or goal fixation.

“The awakened sages call a person wise when all his undertakings are free from anxiety about results.” Have Goals, but put in effort for results.
