There are so many wonderful things to do in life, but what can you do best? Find out and then go ahead and do it and enjoy doing it. Do not waste time and energy longing to do something else, or wishing you were somewhere else with other opportunities. Realise you are in exactly the right place at the right time, and you are there for a specific purpose to do a specific job. Therefore give all you have to that job, and do it with love and joy. See what fun life can be, not just for yourself, but also for all those souls around you. Unless you give of your very best to the whole, you cannot hope to become part of that whole. You cut yourself off from it, and there is no wholeness in you. What deep satisfaction you will find when you do what has to be done perfectly and you do it for the benefit of the whole!

　　生活中有很多美好的事情可以去做，但我能做到最好的是什麼呢？找出它來，然後開始去做，並享受完成它的過程。不要浪費時間和精力在渴望去做另外的事情上面，或是希望我在其他地方，有其他的機會。要意識到我就在對的地方和對的時間，並且我是為了一個特定的目標，去完成一項特定的工作而在那兒。因此對那項工作給出我的全部，並帶著愛與愉悅去做好它。

　　看看生活可以變得多麼得快樂，不僅僅是對我自己而言，並且也是對在我周圍的所有靈魂們而言。除非我對整體給出我最好的，我就無法期許成為那整體的一部分。我將我自己從中隔斷開來，在我之中並沒有合一。我會找到多麼深厚的滿足感啊，當我完美地完成需要被完成的，並且我是為了整體的利益這樣去做！
