When a situation calls us to action, we often feel uncertain about what to do. Even after acting, we may wonder if we did the right thing or did enough, leading to endless self-questioning.
In fact, the test of appropriate action is much simpler:
– Am I being sincere in what I do?
– Am I doing the best I can in the situation?
Jackie, who is moving, starting a new job, and digging out from under piles of associated paperwork has had plenty of recent opportunities to face these questions. She guided our discussion this Sunday, sharing a talk by Chas DiCapua that points to ways we can free ourselves of self-judgemental thoughts.
