I don't have time to think about, yeah?

And so, meanwhile, we really have this culture where, like, somebody walks in, gives me a question, and expects the answer right away.

And I'm always asking myself,

Why can't you just, to some questions, just say, let me think about it.

I'm going to come back to it tomorrow.

So that means sometimes there are questions you are being asked by people where you feel it puts you under pressure.

But maybe think about it, why do you want to answer it right away?

What's the point to give the answer right away, especially if it's an important answer?

I personally would prefer if I would come up to you with a really important question, I would even prefer for you to tell me, okay, that is something I cannot just decide on the spot.

Let me think about it and tomorrow we're going to talk about it again.

And then also for me, I have no problem to say, okay, let's talk tomorrow.

And this is also something where nowadays a lot of pressure is coming from, from these type of things that unconsciously you just give answers for the sake of giving answers, whereas it would be better to just wait.

Wait on it, yeah.

Think about it.

If we are really not talking about physical attack, then I think it's very easily expressed that we are right now in the field of Buddhist teachings or of Chan or Zen teachings, which means it is about the mind.

We are only talking right now about psychological aspects.

and every confrontation that you are feeling inside the mind.

For me personally, what it means is if something is resonating and is still triggering me mentally and therefore also emotionally, the only thing it means is that is one of the next areas I need to learn to adjust.

This is my initial, I don't know what else to say.

That's the lesson.
