"Zen"
“...it's like this. Sometimes,
when you've a very long street ahead of you, you think how terribly long it is
and feel sure you'll never get it swept. And then you start to hurry. You work
faster and faster and every time you look up there seems to be just as much
left to sweep as before, and you try even harder, and you panic, and in the end
you're out of breath and have to stop--and still the street stretches away in
front of you. That's not the way to do it.
You must never think of the
whole street at once, understand? You must only concentrate on the next step,
the next breath, the next stroke of the broom, and the next, and the next.
Nothing else.
That way you enjoy your work,
which is important, because then you make a good job of it. And that's how it
ought to be.
And all at once, before you
know it, you find you've swept the whole street clean, bit by bit. what's more,
you aren't out of breath. "
- Michael Ende, Momo
