Choice is attention. Judge what is right for you and pursue that course. Leave the rest alone. But, the worried mind cannot leave the rest alone. It fights many things. Therefore, it creates more of the very thing that it says it does not want.
When we know what we are about, we know. We do not just think about it, we know. We do not become overly worried by appearances or opposition, for we know that we do not have to be worried about what we see or what anybody else sees. We know within ourselves what we want to do and what we are going to accomplish.
It has been said that Truth is a journey that has no end. It is a series of eternal beginnings. Most people want to find an end to something. They cannot conceive of endless existence, and so they are always putting limits and confines on things, accepting the view or the feeling of the experience. True experience is beyond feeling. It is within the realm of knowingness, the ability to expand beyond the limit of things. It is the changing of the focus. of consciousness into an infinite realm, either infinitely small or infinitely large, but beyond the fixation of matter.
