The Most Beautiful Fate

The most beautiful fate, the most wonderful good fortune that can happen to any human being, is to be paid for doing that which he passionately loves to do.

~ Abraham Maslow

One thought on “The Most Beautiful Fate

  1. Assuming that’s true, assuming that’s the case that the best thing that could happen is to be paid for what you love to do, then in that case….

    If you may not currently be doing that which you want to be doing, George Eliot writes, “It’s never too late to be who you might have been.” Furthermore, H. Jackson Brown, Jr. writes, “Never let the odds keep you from doing what you know in your heart you were meant to do.”

    And in a poetic passage, Marianne Williamson says, “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?”

    And an anonymous phrase captures the next step in this logic. Assuming ALL the above is true, then what do we do next? This anonymous phrase is: “What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?”
