When I first fell in love with singing, I couldn't help pumping out my full breath and exhausting my entire vigor of emotion, pursuing an ideal state that my impressive voice was able to stick in the mind of every one of my audience. I yearned after such an effect that everyone could be touched by my tone, and that the same tune of sentiment would gush from the bottom of their hearts. This is a state of art which is so far off to be reached. But at present, I'm only an obscure singer, not an eminent artist.        

When I first fell in love with writing, my enthusiasm for literary creation grew intensely. I went so far as to scribble my every sudden flash of inspiration on a piece of paper. I racked my brains to consider every element—every word and even every punctuation in my article. I fantasized that one day I would become a celebrated writer and on this impulse, I got the dissatisfaction at myself so long as I came across a real masterpiece. But masters as they are, a nobody as I am.         

Every time I fall in love with something, I pursue the superb degree. But however much passion I possess, I have neither proficient skills nor specific abilities. I embark on it as a greenhand. I'm first with it as a nobody. Encountered by such a dilemma, I was confused for long. Finally, I come up with a notion, a mindset for an enthusiast to possess: to love but not to pursue.         

When you love something thoroughly and have developed the ambition to go far, be aware of the obstacles you may confront and the embarrassment you may have to sustain. They're foes against your amour of confidence and aspiration. They overpower you bit by bit in a way of corrosion. Then where does the crux lie in? It's in the mood of rashness, which is rooted in pursuing blindly. This is a poor quality of mind which invisibly aggrandizes those foes against an enthusiast, against you and me. Therefore, it is sometimes well advised that we might as well give up pursuing and just leave our love alone, with no urge and stress accompanying it. My love motivates me, thus I make way in my life. I'm pleased with every step I take, while careless about what a certain point I have to approach.        

To love but not to pursue. When you try this mindset and keep it your faith, you'll find yourself striving in a thoroughgoing manner. You'll find yourself making surprising progress. Finally, you'll wondrously find yourself having achieved your goal and realized your dream.
