So when it comes to developing something about yourself, it doesn't matter what it is.
If it is just following up in becoming great in any type of sport, or even if you want to build up like a small community or something for yourself, it's about if you want to go somewhere, if you have a goal and want to go somewhere along this way,
you will meet different type of hindrances that we call that will sometimes make it difficult for you to, let's say, reach the goal where you would like to go and to very easily explain it.
One way, for example, is if you are too easily being caught by positive emotions.
Which type of positive emotions?
All types that is raising something inside of you that you are relating to that feels really good now.
But it takes you out of your ordinary.
So that means you have a goal on the mind what you want to achieve.
You start walking, you start doing your jobs and your obligations, but along this way you are meeting a distraction, which is giving you a lot of positive emotions.
Because you are in that average state of the mind, that overall, let's say, normal state of the mind, now if it takes you out of the average,
of being positive, it's very easy for us that we get attached to these type of feelings.
So what it ultimately means, you're going to lose track of your goal because you would prefer right now to spend more time with all of these things that give you positive emotions.
Positive emotions, for example, let's take a very nice one, fame.
Yes, you have a goal in the mind, what you want to achieve, but along this way you feel there is that word of fame.
And so what does it mean?
It means you are getting the views, you are getting the sight of different people, and now you are encountering something that you haven't planned about it before.
But now that you meet it, and now that you feel it,
that it's this type of fame that you could get from the people well now the question still is if you can stick to your initial plan or not or is the fame going to move in front of all of this and it's not your mission anymore that was important to you but now suddenly you are replacing your initial goal with something that gave you positive emotions along this way
I definitely think it is something that you need to consider as a human if you walk through this lifetime and want to build something which is out of the ordinary.
You are 100% going to meet various positive emotions and one of them is just that example that I brought right now.
