Doing, achieving, pressing toward your goals can get you from one moment to the next and closer to what you think you want; but when you focus on a to-do list made up of the expectations of others, everything you do tightens the noose to your creative death.

When you engage in things that light your passion, the fire of your attention makes a new ‘to-do’ list, one that is organic and takes almost no thought at all. Action that is authentic changes the quality of humankind. It is simply, movement and focus springing from the stillness within.

Let your ‘to-do’ list be those things that light your passion and watch your focus burn through every obstacle in the way.
