You have to do it yourself

“You yourself must strive. The Buddhas only point the way.” - Buddha

It doesn’t matter what we’re striving for or what guidance we’ve received along the way; we can’t grow in any facet of our lives without putting in the work. Learning is vital but it’s putting that knowledge into practice that truly shapes our lives. People can show us how to be more patient, organized, mindful, present, athletic or whatever else, but no one can do the work for us.
