Harry Potter's Dirty Little Secret

"It is not our abilities that show what we truly are... it is our choices.
- Dumbledore in Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets

While in the midst of my quarter-life crisis, I turned to the internet for wisdom. I went to http://www.google.com/, and typed into the search engine, "What is the meaning of life?" Surprisingly enough, I got a ton of garbage. One article came up about a coffee shop owner who sold everything, then got on a Greyhound bus with no destination. After a bunch of hours of searching I did find one article that gave me something meaningful. I'l spare you the detail of the article and the source, the bottom line is this: "Ultimately, a person become what they focus on."

So, this is what I would call the Big Secret. You become what you focus on. It's really that simple.
