“Nothing can harm you as much as your own thoughts unguarded.”
— Buddha

Simplified Meaning:
Our thoughts are powerful and can affect us deeply. If we don't pay attention to them, they can create fear, stress, and sadness even when there's no real danger. For example, if you often think you're not good enough at your job, you'll start to believe it and this can make you feel anxious and unhappy. On the other hand, if you notice these negative thoughts and question them, you can prevent them from taking over your mind. By practicing mindfulness and positive thinking, you can protect yourself from the harm caused by your own mind. This means regularly checking in with yourself and adjusting your thoughts to be more helpful and positive.
