Many common problems are caused by wrong attitudes. People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them. Naturally you wonтАЩt be happy that way. You can only be happy when you see things in proper perspective: all human beings are of equal importance in GodтАЩs sight, and have a job to do in the divine plan.
IтАЩll give you an example of a woman who had some difficulty finding out what her job was in the divine plan. She was in her early forties, single, and needed to earn a living. She hated her work to the extent that it made her sick, and the first thing she did was to go to a psychiatrist who said he would adjust her to her job. So after some adjustment she went back to work. But she still hated her job. She got sick again and then came to me. Well, I asked what her calling was, and she said, тАЬIтАЩm not called to do anything.тАЭ
That was not true. What she really meant was she didnтАЩt know her calling. So I asked her what she liked to do because if it is your calling you will do it as easily and joyously as I walk my pilgrimage. I found she liked to do three things. She liked to play the piano, but wasnтАЩt good enough to earn her living at that. She liked to swim, but wasnтАЩt good enough to be a swimming instructor, and she liked to work with flowers.
