What to do

Today, I realized (thanks to a conversation with Jacob Siegel) that the primary struggle I have, especially for the last two years, regards the intersection of the following:

1. What I want to do
2. What I think I should do
3. What I do

Naturally, the more these things intersect, the more satisfied I am with what I have done.

Such a simple idea is, in practice, so insanely complicated for me. But I observe others for whom it appears to happen seamlessly. For me, all kinds of seams. For example, I should be asleep. But I also lament the dearth of posts on this blog, and hate to waste the inspiration. Alas, I go to bed, in order that I have time to meditate in the morning. And maybe divine the answer to this very question!
