What if, in reality, the world revealed its goodness in exact proportion to your desire for the best? What if the more your concept of "best" is elevated, expanded, and sophisticated, the more possibilities and benefits you can perceive? This doesn't mean you can have what you want simply by desiring it, that everything is interpretation, or that it doesn't actually exist. The world is still there, with its structures and limitations. As you move with the world, it cooperates or objects. But you can dance with it if you focus on the dance—and perhaps you can even lead it, if you have enough skill and grace. This isn't theology. It isn't mysticism. It's empirical knowledge. There's nothing magical here, or anything beyond the already present magic of consciousness. We only see what we focus on. The rest of the world (and that's the greater part) is hidden. If we start focusing on something different, something like "I want my life to be better," our mind will begin to present us with new information, derived from the previously hidden world, to help us in what we seek.
