Work.
I go to work.
I work out.
My car doesn’t work.
My pen has ink, so it works.
The sun works and so I live.
The sun lives because the cosmos works.
The cosmos works because my mind works and can thus perceive the works of the cosmos.
The great works of the world only work for the same reason, the unification of perception in regards to cumulative work.
Work is just the thing; a construct of cultural divergence agreeing on a single unit to measure effort, to simply explain achievement. You do not achieve if you do not do work. This is a reality of all nature and is true in the sense that the lawn will not be mown if I do not work out how to mow it or the spider cannot eat without catching its prey. It is also obscenely untrue; because the mind works all the time, the cosmos is, not was, and shall not be; just IS. That is to say that work, as per life, is just that moment; then, it becomes reality before passing back to the cosmic arc. Per your understanding of energy, this is unlimited; forever existing and forever to exist only distinguished by work unseen or felt. The work of consciousness alone consummating with the living.
The harder we push our own arcs, designed by choice, into the cosmos, the more successful we become at being the beings that we are. So, work and work hard; ergo the seen and unseen around each of us will match that effort providing yet more gracious rewards. Choose what the concerted effort of the work will be concentrated on, yet allow the moment to be absorbed as there will be never another to match this moment precisely ever again. Once you have that put your mind then to task, a mind that constantly works for you with the cosmos responding, will you be able to personally grasp the level of achievements you desire. Never let that desire diminish. A moment left content, without a parallel of desire strikes all momentum of an achievement; so create heightened desire from the momentous satisfaction being perceived. And pass the torch from one success to the next by putting in more work, much like the cosmos and mother earth work for you each day to finally conquer your doubts of success with joy; an emotion passed in success to all connected and creating the ultimate moment of shared passionate resolve! Consequently, being the best you, the hardest working you and the most successful you ever in this moment. In the next moment. And the next.
P.S. Never stop learning. Learning is the axis from which all work is prescribed. You cannot work a task unless you learn what that task was in the first place. No matter how hard you believe the moment will explain its purpose to you, without you grasping that teachable moment, and working your learning, you will not understand that task’s maximum purpose and ultimate fulfillment.
