Both

Should I strive for enlightenment
or leave it to grace?
Should I strive for success
or leave it to fate?
Should I try to change
or just accept myself as I am?
Should I seek company
or learn to be content in solitude?
Should I seek fulfillment of my desires
or attempt to transcend them?
Should I free my animal self
or control it with spiritual practices?
Should I shout from the rooftops
and try to change the world
or accept the world as it is
and pass gently by?
And the answer I suspect is both
both and neither.
