There Are No End To Good Things
Author: siggyIt is important not to get seduced by good things. There is no end to good things. When you let yourself be seduced by good things, they become a distraction and you never get to the “meat” of your schedule.
It means first being still and then looking at your life and listening to your tiny voice telling you what is really important for you to do. Each person has one. And if you let yourself be distracted by good things you never get there.
Your “mission” is your unique contribution to the world–to the people in your circle. It has been crowded out. So be aware of the seduction of good things and say no to them. There is no end to good things.

This is important. Not to fall for all the substitutes, thinking they are “ok”. I’m glad you wrote it. Yes, they can be “good” things, but still distract you from the best, and from your unique mission in life. Excellent writing, very insightful.
