【2015新书】The Crossroads of Should and Must: Find and Follow Your Passion

版主，近日在办公室的写论文的积极性非常低~非常想要去考cpa，一方面，是来自父母的压力（父母认为，读博士，也可以考cpa的，而且，作为会计专业毕业，cpa是一张通行证），另一方面，是自己的渴望，希望能够从书本中获取能量~~

how many people can really really follow their passion... reality kills, man!!

看看，O(∩_∩)O谢谢

读完此书，深有感触！阅读过程中，顺便做了一些笔记，共享~~
Should is how other people want us to live our lives.
It’s all of the expectations that others layer upon us. Sometimes, should are small, seemingly innocuous, and easily accommodated. “you should listen to that song,” for example. At other times, shoulds are highly influential systems of thought that pressure and, at their most destructive, coerce us to live our lives differently.
When we choose should. We’re choosing to live our life for someone or something other than ourselves. The journey to should can be smooth, the rewards can seem clear, and the options are often plentiful.
Must is different.
Must is who we are, what we believe, and what we do when we are alone with our truest, most authentic self. It’s that which calls to us most deeply. It’s our convictions, our passions, our deepest urges and desires—unavoidable, undeniable, and inexplicable. Unlike should, must doesn’t accept compromises.
Must is when we stop conforming to other people’s ideals and start connection to our own—and this allows us to cultivate our full potential as individuals. To choose must is to say yes to hard work and constant effort, to say yes to a journey without a road map or guarantees, and in so doing, to say yes to what Joseph Cambell called “ the experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonance within our innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive.”
