There is no answer. Instead of wasting time grappling with that trap. They decide to act. They look to their childhood and look for what filled them with enthusiasm then and disregarding the advice of their elders, devote their life to it. Because enthusiasm is the sacred fire. They slowly discover, their actions are linked to a mysterious impulse beyond human knowledge. And they bow their heads as a sign of respect for that mystery and pray that they will not be diverted from a path they do not know, a path which they have chosen to travel because of the flame burning in their hearts. They use their intuition when they can and resort to discipline when intuition fails them. They seem quite mad. And sometimes they behave like mad people. But they are not mad. They have discovered true love and will. And those two things reveal the goal and the direction that they should follow. Their will is crystalline, their love is pure and their steps determined. In moments of doubt or sadness they never forget: I am an instrument, allow me to be an instrument capable of manifesting your will. They have chosen their road, and they may understand what their goal is only when they find themselves before the unwanted visitor. That is the beauty of the person who continues onward with enthusiasm and respect for the mystery of life as his only guide. His road is beautiful, and his burden light. The goal will be large or small, it can be far away or right next door. He goes in search of it with respect and honor. He knows what each step means, and how much it costs in effort and training and intuition. He focuses not just on the goal to be reached but on everything happening around him. He often has to stop because his strength fails him. At such moments, love appears and says: You think you're heading toward a specific point, but the whole justification for the goals existence lies in your love for it. Rest a little. But as soon as you can, get up and carry on. Because ever since your goal found out that you were traveling toward it, it has been running to meet you.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Paolo Coelho" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/paolo-coelho/finally-there-are-those-who-saw-at-once-that-the-question-was-a-trap/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/0db/paolo-coelho-19915_advice_finally-there-are-those-who-saw-at-once_707745.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/0db/paolo-coelho-19915_advice_finally-there-are-those-who-saw-at-once_707745.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/0db/paolo-coelho-19915_advice_finally-there-are-those-who-saw-at-once_707745.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Finally there are those who saw at once that the question was a trap.
