Attachment to desired outcomes from our actions causes restlessness in the mind and body. When the mind rests in the awareness of God as the owner of all outcomes it is possible to engage in action that is clear and deliberate without the murky restlessness that comes with attachment.

Patience and contentment are the twin companions of one who would possess God. Impatience and lack of appreciation take us far from abiding in the true Self. Practice noticing this distinction and let patience and contentment be your pathway of return.
