Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of three key elements in achieving success: ability, motivation, and attitude. Ability refers to the skills and aptitudes one possesses, indicating what one is capable of doing. However, motivation is what truly drives a person to take action and determine what tasks or actions they choose to pursue. Lastly, the attitude one adopts towards their work or goals determines how well they perform. In other words, while ability and motivation set the foundation, it is one's attitude that ultimately determines the level of success and quality of their accomplishments.

I'm a firm believer that lighting affects mood, and twinkly lights on strings bring something magical to occasions ranging from concerts to weddings, though I'm fond of using them as year-round home decor. There's a reason why they're sometimes called fairy lights. When the night is right, there aren't any strings at all.

So, the darkness in life appears immediately when we sit dow

So, the darkness in life appears immediately when we sit down to do zazen because immediately we'll find out that our best intentions to do zazen well don't come off. Usually we don't do zazen quite as well as we want to. And we also find out a curious thing that even when we are very sincere, unbidden thoughts arise, unbidden feelings. Things come out of nowhere that we had no intention of summoning. And usually we spend some time fighting with these. I certainly did. A lot of time fighting with these. And I think some fighting can be good because we can feel our strength and our sincerity, but in the long run you just feed the demon when you fight it. You give it energy. In the long run what happens is that if we just attend, things settle. In that way, I think, we go into the poison. We darken the darkness.Zazen: a particular kind of meditation, unique to Zenhttp://www.dharmaweb.org/index.php/Poison_and_Joy_John_Tarrant,_Roshi
