“The rabbits mingled naturally. They did not talk for talking's sake, in the artificial manner that human beings - and sometimes even their dogs and cats - do. But this did not mean that they were not communicating; merely that they were not communicating by talking.”
― Richard Adams, Watership Down
Culturally we tend to associate external accomplishment with internal accomplishment—when a person has achieved something worthy of recognition we think it’s because they have persevered and overcome a great inner struggle. Sometimes this is the case but not always; often an external achievement comes out of avoidance, of doing anything and everything possible not to have to face the real struggle. We drown ourselves in work to distract us from problems in our love lives. We try to outdo our rivals to escape our jealousy.
When we have exterior accomplishment without the interior, that’s when, I think, we most strongly feel like we are imposters. Like, Okay, we’ve done this great praiseworthy thing so how come we still aren't a better human being? Perhaps it's because when we ignore the internal challenges, we tend to act from fear rather than in spite of it. When we do the former, even if we succeed outwardly, we fail inwardly.
That vague and oft-repeated idea—being true to yourself—takes on a much more precise meaning. Being true to yourself is facing the interior challenges; taking the shame and struggle given to you by birth and circumstance, and making it your life’s work.
