Sohei Warrior Monk ~ the Starting Point

A state of inaction leads to sloth and torpor. It’s a result of having low energy and a lack of motivation. Sloth and torpor can also come in the form of defeat, self-pity, thoughts of futility, complacency or even depression,

Maybe you’re experiencing it because you feel unmotivated or have doubt that leads to uncontrollable hesitation and questioning.
This hindrance can be likened to a tub of water stirred with mud, and placed in a dark room. The lack of light and cloudiness makes it hard to see clearly.

You might question your abilities (“Am I capable of doing this?” “What if I fail?”), or a mentor’s advice (“He’s not experienced enough.” “I know more than he does.”), or your decisions (“Am I doing the right thing?” What if something bad happens?”)

Acknowledge that feeling, understand it, then let it go.
