As the years pass, I’ve come to realize the “price” I must pay is abiding in acceptance—ceasing to obsess over conditions and machinations and allowing myself to viscerally appreciate whatever’s in front of me.
That’s why I was doing all that work in the first place. Now that I’ve figured out I can get there without the work, I think of it less as a “price” and more as a right.

Yep. Obviously logic and discipline are of high value, but it’s undisputable that there’s an x-factor comprised of perspective, intuition, and who knows what else.

I like how you left it at “who knows what else.” I think it loses its punch when people try and define it.
