A student asked Bruce Lee to teach him everything he knew about martial arts. Bruce held up two cups filled with liquid.
“The first cup,” said Bruce, “represents all of your knowledge about martial arts. The second cup represents all of my knowledge about martial arts. If you want to fill your cup with my knowledge, you must first empty your cup of your knowledge.”
In the same way, if you want to discover your true purpose in life, you must first empty your mind of all the false purposes you’ve been taught [including, by the way, the possibility that you may have no purpose].
