It just says in the context of you want to reach your goal, how to reach the goal the quickest, be focused with your energy. meaning be focused with the mind. Don't lose the goal from the mind. Whatever you do from the moment of waking up until the evening, whatever you do, keep the goal in the mind. This is the quickest way of making this goal become real.

Number two, simply said, you don't like discomfort. You don't like challenges. You don't like hardship. In that TEDx talk, I described it like you're walking along the path and then suddenly it starts to rain, but you don't like rain. So instead of you just continue to follow the path, you are starting to make your mind busy about what you don't like.

And already that means the mind starts to shift again, losing the focus of the goal. So this idea... Hindrance number one. Hindrance number two. Actually, you can easily say it like this. This is the goal. Two things not to do. Spend your time enjoying. Don't do this. Or spend your time rejecting that things are not the way how you imagine them to be. Both of these things.

One is you follow pleasure, and the other thing, you're rejecting any challenges. Both of these things is something to be aware of when it comes to stay focused along the path.

No, even for example, like in the book or even now when we talk about we have the five hindrances, we have the 14 virtues, we have the eight rules, we have the four here and the 13 here and the 16th. It's a very good guideline because it makes it easy for us humans to have something like really structured. There are four steps, there are six steps, there are five steps, whatsoever.

What I want to say is, just in this way, it's also that only discipline wouldn't be helpful if in the first place you do not possess the ability to practice see it, to realize it, to be aware of it. Meaning you have discipline, but you are never aware actually when is the moment actually appearing right now that this sensory desire is hitting in. You're not aware of it.

So the discipline wouldn't help you if you don't have this awareness. So always meaning, I do think that there are different ways different qualities of the mind that come into play for you to adjust yourself properly.

Yes.

Yes.

This is, for example, where I very much appreciate so many different teachings that are meanwhile existing, freely available, for example, through the social media, including breath work, including yoga practices. All of them, if you have a proper teacher,

I'm very sure that this is exactly what is starting to raise your awareness for something that in this field, when you're spending some time, we refer to as energy. If you're not aware of your own inner layer, let's say like this, and somebody insults you, it can happen that somebody insulted me and then I just started exploding.
