From “The Human Condition: A User’s Manual,” by Arnold Kunst
29 August
Life often presents a fairly simple choice: do I want to cling to the security of what was once appropriate, or will I cut loose and be abundantly wealthy? Think about it - clinging fiercely to antiquated appropriateness, as to apparently validated self-pity, may seem oh, so delicious, but it comes at far too high a price. I am meant to adjust to the changes life offers like a sailor who trims his sails to fit into his purpose any moment's turn in the weather – and like that sailor, I refuse to abdicate my sovereignty by letting this or that commotion in the elements dictate how I handle the resource[s] at my command.
After all, we cannot wish it otherwise: achievements NEVER happen in comfort zones.
