Choice of attention - to pay attention to this and ignore that - is to the inner life what choice of action is to the outer. In both cases, a man is responsible for his choice and must accept the consequences, whatever they may be.
关注的选择——关注这个而忽略那个——对内在生活的影响,就像行动对外在生活的影响一样。在这两种情况下,一个人都要对他的选择负责,并且必须接受后果,不管后果是什么。
