Vocation vs. Avocation

(January 21, 1999)

Other people have no more power than we do. They have the knack for making us think they can do anything.

A little adjustment in our minds will stop the thought that we must cope and compete with those who have greater advantages. If we believe anything holds us back, limits our ability, we can know without a doubt that more ability resides in us than we will ever have time to hone and develop.

When we are doing something we love to do, it comes naturally to mind our own business and to polish our own skills. Love for the right work takes it out of the role of labor and competition and makes it into a work of art.

Then, the little competitive self is dissolved into a giant that didn't realize how much he was growing.

Peace,
