Normal life follows a pattern set by a list of “shoulds” that pave the path of traditional success. It can also lead to mediocrity and for many, the way of should fights with a feeling of “must.”

A “should” is something you do because life functions more easily that way. A “must” is something your soul demands you do. If you answer to your “musts” in life, it can forge a way to your own special brand of happiness.

“Musts” often seem to conflict with short-term success but there are steps you can take to fit them in between the “shoulds” and begin answering to what your soul demands. We face the choice between these often and answering to “must” can bring a truer future.
