Aristotle talks about this concept of the Golden Mean, in which each person has their perfect state of balance.
I've realized that with regard to my Christianity, my perfect balance is an extreme. I've found it to be true with lots of missionaries. Whenever you have the mindset that every person you encounter could very well go to hell if you don't share Christ with them, it changes things.
And it's not like a desperation to fill a quota; it's this idea where you think, "my action or inaction is the very thing that could end up defining this person's eternal state."
