It’s an inside job, all that those things which you attribute to the outer. Whether it be joy or pain, happiness or sorrow, look not for the cause nor the answer to solve for all is the work of what is working on you within you. Make no excuse, blame no other, for no other but yourself has access to and power of and over your “inner workings.” This is not about self control that we speak. It is about self will which is your power to be whatever you want, whatever you think.
Think about it for a minute, what is it that you most often think about? Is it thoughts of all things higher? Is “the best for all” always your desire? Do you really think that you are helping yourself by comparing you with your neighbor? What you have and what you do is totally up to you. When you compare, you judge. You set up resistance by drawing lines, lines that by your own mind you are defined. You say of one he is more and has more and another you place below. Hardly do you know the truth of any other for you do not understand yourself. It is your job to find out who you are, not to define and thus judge your brother.
