"Let's say that you are a businessperson and after two years of intense
stress and strain you finally manage to come out with a product or service
that sells well and makes money. Success? In conventional terms, yes. In
reality, you spent two years polluting your body as well as the earth with
negative energy, made yourself and those around you miserable, and affected
many others you never even met. The unconscious assumption behind all
such action is that success is a future event, and that the need justifies the
means. But the end and he means are one. And if the means did not
contribute to human happiness, neither will the end. The outcome, which is
inseparable from the actions that led to it, is already contaminated by those
actions and so will create further unhappiness. This is karmic action, which
is the unconscious perpetuation of unhappiness.
As you already know, your secondary or outer purpose lies within the
dimension of time, while your main purpose is inseparable from the Now
and therefore requires the negation of time. How are they reconciled? By
realizing that your entire life journey ultimately consists of the step you are
taking at this moment. There is always only this one step, an so you give it
your fullest attention. This doesn't mean you don't know where you are
going; it just means this step is primary, the destination secondary. And what
you encounter at your destination once you get there depends on the quality
of this one step. Another way of putting it: What the future holds for you
depends on your state of consciousness now.
When doing becomes infused with the timeless quality of Being, that
is success. Unless Being flows into doing, unless you are present, you lose
yourself in whatever you do. You also lose yourself in thinking, as well as in
your reactions to what happens externally." - Eckart Tolle
