How not to get in your own way, AKA being yin versus yang.

[alenas_roses]

What do you all do when you find yourself striving towards a solution for a problem and know that you're "lusting for result" or vainly grasping in such a way as to lose focus? How do you each train yourself to truly be still when you need it and listen for the Force, Tao, HGA, or what-have-you to whisper in your ear

...ah, I just watch me doing whatever, freaking or trying to control, and see that I do it for this reason (because I think I'm the only smart sentient being in the world system, or because I don't trust this one, or because I feel I'm right: it really always boils down to me doing what I think is 'right', and believing it is right-er than the universe's 'right')...I have compassion for me too, because it's a riot, really, to try to control the universe seriously even for an instant...you *know* it won't work, but you have to try...ahahaha!

Two words: "LET GO"

We *were* just talking about Portal alchemy, right?
