Problems are a projection of your own mind, the unwanted parts of yourself you want to get rid of. Problems will go away by working with them using compassion and patience. If they still linger on remember, when the resistance is gone, so are the problems.
We must not accept the judgement of others as a measure of our own self-worth, instead live your life simply without comparison. We all have flaws. Take stock of yours according to your own judgement and use them as a measure for self-improvement.
When you have no enemy, you will always be victorious. If you have enemies, never underestimate them. Underestimating your enemy is thinking that they are evil, thus you become an enemy yourself. Victory will always go to the one that knows how to yield.
If you encounter hinderances at the beginning of an enterprise, do not try to force advance, but pause and take thought. However, do not let anything put you off your course. Persevere and keep your goal in sight, but no matter how confident you are, nothing should be taken lightly.
