“When you live through the ego, you always reduce the present moment to a means to an end.
You live for the future, and when you achieve your goals, they don’t satisfy you, at least not for long.
When you give more attention to the doing than to the future result that you want to achieve through it, you break the old egoic conditioning.
Your doing then becomes not only a great deal more effective, but infinitely more fulfilling and joyful.”
Excerpt From: Tolle, Eckhart. “Stillness Speaks.”
