Truth is not somewhere nearby, not in this or that … It is within you …
Stop believing in words and letters. Other people's words are not real situations and facts that are relevant to you. Words are spoken and written by people according to their worldview at a certain point in time, but basically these are all unrealizable dreams of others. Don't pull it over yourself!
Close your ears for direct advice. Don't trust anyone, especially the dialogue of your mind. And don't believe me. What's the use of believing if you don't understand? And the subtlety here is that you don't need to understand everything and everyone, because you can explain and understand everything, that's not the point!
Your process of understanding begins not in your mind, but in how it responds in you, seethes or is reflected when someone speaks, writes, acts, what is yours in this, what piece, what clings and how does it unfold through you? This is what you must learn to listen to and feel very subtly!
Only when you unfold something of yours from within does your process of understanding begin, and not comparing someone else's worldview with your own and buzzing your mind about this.
We all need not blind faith, not attempts to repeat or copy someone's path and play other people's roles of spiritual or material success. We need our own individual truth, which builds our path through internal reflection, revealing itself in the process of our thoughts and actions through other people's words and experience. Then comes the understanding of this process with the transition into action, only here you need a mind in its full understanding, so as not to reinvent the wheel, everything else is attachments and fanaticism …

Psychologist Tatyana Lyavenko's comments:
Everyone who stands on the way to himself - sooner or later will face the feeling that he is dying … He will not die in body, but in personality - these are illusory representations of oneself by the mind and the ego.
This state can be characterized by apathy, hopelessness, the rise of internal blocks to the surface, hopelessness, meaninglessness of existence in general. Everything will seem unnecessary, insignificant, meaningless, and you will be torn to pieces. There will be little energy, desires end …
But one should not be afraid of such states - one must learn to observe them. At this moment, something real breaks through to the surface.
All this will seem to be a big conflict between the old dogmas and the attitudes of the familiar past with an inner "fresh breath", which is the feeling of dying. The old dies - the new comes to this place. And here, the most important thing - what will you fill your new with, give a light to your essence or slag another portion of something fashionable, necessary and necessary, leaving your elevation for your favorite excuse "later and somehow".
This period can be called "the dying of the personality and the birth of the true self." This is a change in the level of consciousness and a transition to a new level. Therefore, firstly - allow this state to be, do not run away from it into the usual vanity. Just allow yourself to watch …
Ask yourself a simple question in silence: Who are you and how does it feel to be you?
Take your time and try to answer it sometime … Our life, which seems to us to be ours, is not ours, it is a reflection of external events in our consciousness, formed by 99.9% and conditioned by experience, that's all.
Nothing is the end, not even the end. Any end is just the beginning of the continuation of something new. Remember this in any state - in despair, in grief, at the grave of a loved one, reading the message of the one you love, who is no longer with you.
There will certainly be a day when you say: "Everything is for the best!" Nothing is the end: one day you will realize that this is just the end of another episode of a long, real life series …
Desires are life. Only if these are your true desires. Let the desire live inside and follow it. If it hasn't disappeared, follow it …
Never rush, there is no hurry. Anything that happens quickly doesn't last long. All mistakes are made in a hurry and the point here is not that you need to think, no, you need to learn to feel, feel.
After all, if you really want something, you will do it all the same. If you got sick in the process of deliberation, then it was not necessary. Put aside risky desires and actions, letting them "lie down".
Especially do something that you are not sure about, the inner urge and response will always guide you …
