I don't think you can ever do your best. Doing your best is a process of trying to do your best.
People are afraid to pursue their most important dreams, because they feel that they don't deserve them, or that they'll be unable to achieve them. We, their hearts, become fearful just thinking of loved ones who go away forever, or of moments that could have been good but weren't, or of treasures that might have been found but were forever hidden in the sands.
心之外没有独立的境界,一切现象都是识的显现。
