Why would we benefit from analysis and synthesis in living life intentionally in the first place? If we think about it, we will often have specific exemplars of the things we want to experience or the relationships we want to have as we set our intentions. These people, objects, or experiences are signs of what we want for ourselves, but those particular examples are more often than not unavailable. For example, if we see someone doing some work at a place and we think that we would want to do that too, we can hold that image of that person at work in our hearts and draw ourselves toward that work as we draw the work toward ourselves. But remember, that job is currently taken. I don’t think we want to create unemployment for that person we saw doing the work we are interested in. It might not even be the exact job or the precise workplace that is what really drew us to that example. Yet, many times we may find ourselves holding out for that job at that place, never seeing the possibilities that would more than adequately fulfill our desires.
A couple of weeks ago, we were asked to find our why. This week, we are called to do the work that will allow us to know the why.
