When Things Fall Apart
Heart advice for the point where your usual strategies stop working, and moving toward it is the counsel.
Pema Chödrön, an American Buddhist nun, writes about the moments when your usual strategies stop working. Her counsel runs against instinct: move toward the difficulty rather than away, and treat groundlessness as information rather than emergency. Written plainly, for people in the middle of something.
