It's going to get in the way of my participation.

So the best way to be fully engaged is to let go of the outcome and then we'll take things as they come.

Being all committed to the outcome that you have in mind, frankly, completely takes you out of what you're already doing.

It's not that I don't care.

It's that I'm not so committed to it and involved to it that I now am staking my reputation on it.

I'm staking my identity.

And now I've got a psychological attachment to it.

And it's all about me.

So what it really boils down to is recognizing that it's not about you all the time.

It turns out, thinking well, making a good decision,

is a good idea.

And if we could run, you know, the same decision in a thousand parallel universes and watch all the vagaries, you know, the better decisions would probably work out more often than the bad decisions.

But let's be clear.

I'm not in charge of the future.

You can influence as best you possibly can.

But let's have an honest and humble perspective on ourselves.

I'm doing the best I can, but that doesn't mean it's going to work.

Absolutely.

What we're trying to do is I'm trying to give reality its best possible chance of turning out the way I hope.

And then once I'm doing that, then I release the fact that then I get to fully participate in the reality that is actually going to occur.
