Practice

"Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is vitally important that you do it." - Mahatma Gandhi

Practice doesn't make perfect. There is no perfect. Practice makes progress, which is all we can expect. In retrospect things almost always seem obvious. Some choices seem stupid, though at the time they were perfectly sensible.

Trying too hard just makes things worse. Follow the middle way, 70% effort or attention according to BK Frantzis. The important thing is to keep trying. Return to the breath or whatever object of concentration.
