How to Grow and Let Go 💃

It's very hard to grow, because it's difficult to let go of the models of ourselves in which we've invested so heavily.

If we’re going to be free, we’re going to be free about the preoccupation with our worldly conditions. It doesn’t mean we won’t notice them, it doesn’t mean we won’t try to optimize them. The question is: how much emotional, attached mind are we investing in optimizing them?
