Quotes that I'm working with at the moment, trying to put into practice in my life:
"Action must not be felt as a burden, for that is a sure sign, indicating that it is against the grain. No action which helps your progress will weigh heavily on you."
"Forget the past, do not worry about the possible errors or disappointments. Decide and do."
And I don't recall if this is an exact quote or paraphrase:
...Reading and writing your evil deeds will just impress them more into your mind. Better to substitute good thoughts for bad. Cleanse the mind by dwelling on righteous deeds and holy thoughts. Forget the things you don't want to remember.
To summarize my working plan:
-if something feels like a burden, stop, and figure out what to do, that doesn't feel like a burden. However, sometimes I have to do things as duty, so what needs to change is not the thing, but the approach. so:
-Don't worry about what happened in the past, or what bad stuff might happen in the future. Decide what must be done, and do it.
-And don't dwell on the stuff that you did bad in the past. Focus on good things you can be doing, and good thoughts to be thinking. It's just a habit. Cultivate it.
And even shorter:
Let your joy lead you. Never settle for something that doesn't feel right and good. Think good, decide on good action, and do it, without worries.
