"Perhaps the main reason that we ignore calls is that we instinctively know the price they'll exact. In order to become authentic, we're going to have to give up something dear: a job, a house, a relationship, a belief, a lifestyle to which we've become accustomed, the prestige of being a big fish in any size pond, security, money, precious time, anger at somebody, or just the pleasures of cynicism."
From: Callings: Finding and Following an Authentic Life, by Gregg Levoy, Harmony Books, 1997.
