Enthusiastic effort 2

All human activity is not effort, and all effort is not enthusiastic. So there is room for improvement.
The key to this improvement is mind. Mind is intention, means and also result.
Often we describe the goals as non mind, like making money, supporting a family with a home, food and everything else and having a family.
But this is really mind. The evaluation of these factors are mind, often strengthened by instinct.
Even negative incentives as punishment and social degradation are mind.
Mind can support these ideas or negate them totally or in different combinations. Sometimes money is preferred instead of family, sometimes family harmony is preferred to money.
In many social situations we have obvious material goals like a certain house, a car, a family, a job. But if we have the mind perspective nothing of these external factors are important.
It is convenient to have some material facilities, but the essential factor is the processes in mind, and they can reach heaven - literally - without having any obvious, material effects.
The results can be transferred and communicated, if there is a willingness to listen.
