#418 I don’t care what I write

Fulfillment doesn’t come from closing the gap between wanting and having.

It comes from closing the gap between wanting and doing.

Want to write a book? Then write every day – even if you don’t have the book yet.

Want to start a successful business? Then start the business – even if you’re not successful yet.

Want to run a marathon? Then run every day – even if you haven’t run a marathon yet.

After all, you might never close the gap between wanting and having.

But the gap between wanting and doing, you can close right this very moment.

When I write, I’m meditating.

When I meditate, I’m writing.

When I run, I’m meditating.

When I meditate, I’m running.

When I play the guitar, I’m meditating.

When I meditate, I’m playing the guitar.

When I meditate, I’m writing.

When I write, I’m running.

When I run, I’m playing the guitar.

And no matter what I do, I’m always living.

Life experience always carries over.

You’ll write the book until you start doubting if you have it in you to write it… then realize that the only way to find out is by actually writing the book.

You’ll prepare for the marathon until you start doubting if you can finish it… then realize that the only way to find out is by actually running the marathon.

You’ll build the business until you start doubting if this is a viable idea… then realize that the only way to find out is by actually building the business.

No matter how much you dance circles, ignoring what your gut has been telling you, deep down, you know: this is where you should’ve gone all along.
