Take passion, for example. Without passion, life would be dull; you wouldn’t want to live without it. But what’s key is what you do with your passion. Do you let it consume you and drive you to irrational acts, or do you harness it to motivate and drive you while you pursue your real goals? What will ultimately fulfill you are things that feel right at both levels, as both desires and goals.
以激情为例。没有激情，生活就会索然无味；没有它你就不想活下去。但关键是你用你的热情做什么。你是让它消耗你并驱使你做出非理性的行为，还是利用它来激励和驱使你追求真正的目标？最终让你感到满足的是在两个层面上都感觉正确的事情，无论是愿望还是目标。
