Temptations will always come before you. When you feel the quickening in the stomach area—that flurry of excitement—beware. This is most often a physical reaction caused very much by the ego. If you can pause long enough to ask yourself why you have such a sudden desire laced with excitement, you may save yourself an equal and opposite reaction of dismay and regret should you give in to that which is tempting you. In that period of pause, settle halfway between over-excitement and regret at the point of perfect stillness, perfect balance. From this place make a measured decision. Do you see how simple it is to live in peace?
