Most people say that as you get old, you have to give things up. I think you get old because you give things up.

Authentic desire

Admit to yourself what you really, truly desire. In the truth and authenticity of your desire exists more than enough energy to make it happen.

Let go of the desires you’ve borrowed just because they are trendy or impressive. Let your heart point the way to what matters.

When it is painful for you to not be following, supporting, committed to what you desire, you know that’s a genuine desire. Do the work, live the effort to zero in on those things you love so intensely you must give yourself to their fulfillment.

Your time has incalculable value. To feel profoundly good about yourself, spend your time and energy on the outcomes, achievements, and purposes you love and desire.

Remind yourself that the desire to matter, to make a difference in your own unique way, lives at your core. Seek out positive, beneficial ways to satisfy that desire in all you do.

What will make things right with the world? What can you do to bring that vision to life?

— Ralph Marston
