Why do you need a reason?

Do you need a reason to do something?

Why do you care for achieving?

Do you need to achieve something?

Extrinsic. The fuel of action.

External benefits, focus.

Fear and avoidance, motivator.

Inherently part of the activities, forgotten.

Rewarding accomplishment.

Frightful consequence.

Arbitrary mandates.

Is it a smart decision,

or the illusion of free will?

Do you have a choice?

Why couldn’t we do something just because we want to?

Why couldn’t we do something just to do it?

Looking for meaning;

Searching for achieving;

Digging for ending.

It is important.

But what about,

enjoying the experience,

finding the interest,

feeling the fulfillment?

Concerning something beyond the activity.

Caring activity itself.

Where is the balance?
