Are you wasting your life just cutting stone?

"What are you doing?" A passerby asked of three workers standing beside a building under construction.

The first worker, looking tired and drained, replied, "I'm just cutting stone."

The second one answered, "Working to make a living."

The third worker, who was singing, said, "I'm building a castle!"

Are you just cutting stone at work? Is that why you're often drained of energy and void of enthusiasm? Are you just trying to make a living? Is that why you find no excitement in what you do? Or are you building or doing something great?

Ask yourself, What great thing do I want to do today? Don't waste your life just cutting stone. Start building castles.
