“There is a time to act, of course. But the action should be based on careful thinking out of the factors. It should not be triggered by every wind that blows.” (ODAT, 15 September)
I wait and wait. And most of the time no action is required.
It is helpful to wait until I am entirely indifferent. I bar myself from deciding until I am indifferent.
The careful thinking out of the factors is mine, not anyone else's.
Sometimes other people are the winds that blow.
Sometimes other people's advice is the wind that blows.
