>It's the same with your motivation/practice/habits.

First of all. Excellent blog post. Just reading it made me want to leave behind the things capping the speed limit on my life.

However, I see that story used in a lot of contexts. (And the characters involved change often.) And what I always find myself asking every time I read it (Or rather skim it as the case may be.) is "Well yes, I knew that much already, but how do you desire something that's not air as much as the ability to breathe itself.". It would seem that therein lies the rub. Getting that excited about anything is tough.

In a way it's a non-answer. Which is always disappointing to receive.
