• Another simple and powerful way to dissolve problems is not to dwell upon the outcome of your actions. Instead, learn to value each action  (no matter how small or large), to do it with complete attention. Your joy and satisfaction comes from doing each action with a whole heart and mind. Results and consequences then take care of themselves. When you are not absorbed by concern for outcomes, how much anxiety can you ever have?
