Protecting yourself from your mind and ego is a daily endeavor. When you are not present, the voice of your thoughts comes in and dominates you.
If things are difficult, do not give up. Persevere. Continue to pursue the path of love and execution of work. You are closer than you think.
Not partaking in excess is essential. I have started to drink less, eat less, have fewer meetings, and attend fewer events.
Returning to serenity requires minimalist action. Take the very next step. Break it down into something so small that you look silly by not doing it.
Cultivating good habits is the easiest way to build yourself into a man of character. They start with your diet, personal hygiene, and exercise.
At large, I dare you to listen profoundly to signs in front of you. Instead of looking for constant input, look for answers.
