Go with what works. Continue it, support it, double down on it, expand on it. Move away, as quickly as possible, from what doesn't work. And fill the time, fill the space, use the energy for what does work. Yes, it is as simple as that. It’s not easy to admit to yourself, or to put into practice, yet it is simple and straightforward. Because at some level you know. You know what pushes you in a positive, creative, fulfilling direction, and what pushes all that goodness away. Make the choice to go with what works best for your life, and for the lives around you, and for the world. Though that choice can initially be difficult and painful, you know that ultimately it is your best choice. Refuse to live at anything less than your highest level. Remind yourself, again and again, to go with what works. Somewhere in just about every person is the longing to give kindness, to be diligent, to do great work and to make a difference in life. Sadly, those longings are often deeply buried by fears, insecurities, doubts, mistrust, disillusionment and so much more. When people feel that their goodness is not appreciated, they can give up on that goodness. Even so, the potential for it is still very much there. Imagine what would happen if you simply allowed other people to be kind and helpful to you by being kind and helpful yourself. Imagine what would happen if you could encourage the goodness in others by giving new life and energy to your own goodness. Though such an approach sounds seriously naive when you consider all the disillusioned people in the world, where it truly has power.
