Some of the most sought after things have indirect paths. I’ve heard it described like a cat- the more you chase it, the further away it runs.
Its difficult to relax by pushing or forcing it- an action directed toward that outcome is counter to it’s realisation.
The same goes for money. If you chase money you will rarely find it.
If you want to be liked by others, you won’t get there by focussing on being liked by others.
If an actor wants a scene to land as sad, they don’t go for the emotion.
Great results come from indirect paths.
To relax we have to let go. To gain financial abundance we must create value. To be liked by others we must care for them in a way that speaks to them. To play the sad scene, the actor must fight tooth and nail to hold on.
What are you going for directly that actually requires an alternate route?
