What one does vs. what one is - is not a good struggle.
If one's soul and heart are not into what one does then success is remote for only half-a-human is at work. And how could anyone rightfully lay claim to any such success if so little is invested in it.
My own lamenting about being trapped in my own principles is wrong. I am my own principles. Soul, heart, mind, and body. Those principles aren't the cage but the door. The way out. Follow this wisdom: 'Make haste to do that which is according to thy Nature' - follow my principles - for they are the best my Nature has to offer.
Marcus Aurelius - The intelligence of the Universe is social. Accordingly, it has made the inferior things for the sake of the superior, and it has fitted the superior to one another. Thou seest how it is subordinated, coordinated, and assigned to everything in its proper portion, and has brought together into concord with one another the things which are the best.
