Shi Heng Yi, a Shaolin master, told Lewis that it can go very wrong to spend your lifetime building a vision that came from someone else.

He named the worst case plainly: you follow it, you achieve it, and then you realize it doesn't give you what you were looking for. What he offers instead is gentle. Learn how to deal with failure, and learn to accept the way you are instead of trying to stay beautiful.

He isn't judging anyone's goals. He asks you to check whose idea you are actually living.

Afterward, you may catch yourself asking which of your dreams really started with you.
