don’t sprint marathons.
somethings takes time specially dealing with your own mind, and sprinting in these scenario is taking me anywhere but on the correct path. contemplating guiding principle twice a day, is not going to make them internalise twice as fast but consistency will.
don’t tighten up your focus on things so much that you become serious, just lighten up enough so unnecessary things slip away.
a part of me was trying so hard these days, as this was my primary focus. infect so hard that I was kind of expecting linear growth. if I invest twice the hours will surely be twice as quicker be affliction free. I don’t need to say about the result.
the thing is, spritual growth is a marathon. and sprinting is insanity here. and thinking that I can sprint the whole marathon would be madness.
even though it is a primary priority. it can not be primary goal. it’s a subtle and consistence practice. and it will grow just like a tree. with time and watering. watering 10 times a day is not going to grow it faster. chances are, it might destroy it. at the same time if it didn’t get water for a day. it’s not going to wither.
