Story: A Body in Motion...
"Well-being is good luck or good character." —Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 7.17
In other words, Aurelius is suggesting that either you're lucky and your surroundings suit you perfectly, or you've done the work to build a solid set of values that helps you accept what you can't control. If the latter, then you're one of the fortunate people that has put in the time and work to build a good character which can guide you through good and bad times.
For example, when your mind compares your situation to those of others and you think you’re deficient, not good enough. Maybe you are good enough but lack in the character trait of self-compassion and you're too hard on yourself. Comparing yourself to others is what trips you up. You hold yourself to unreasonably high standards, because for you, to aspire to anything less is an admission of defeat.
In your experience, when you’ve apply a value that hasn’t always serve you well, you assume and expect everyone to place the bar on the same high notch just because you do. When you learn, take the stage, or converse with others, you have very little compassion for your mistakes or yourself. When life teaches you that your best is well below the highest notch, what do you do? You brood, or worse, do nothing. And as you have claimed, and demonstrated, over the years, even though you are quite good and accomplished, you’re still content to do nothing.
It's nice to look out at the scenery, the hills, the trees, the sky, the distant sea... but at the same time, something inside calls you to action, to get up off your butt and do. And when you do, it is usually more satisfying than doing nothing. It's like the first movement of a sled that has runners frozen in place. The effort to break the bond holding you in place is the most difficult to overcome. Once broken, there is usually enough momentum to sustain motion to get to the downhill portion of the course.
That is to say, a body in motion, tends to stay in motion, so therefore be more inclined towards action rather than being self-absorbed in your perceptions and their antecedent thoughts. It's not always the best that win. It's a combination of skill, ambition, and luck.
Bottom Line: A rolling stone creates it’s own good fortune.
