Siddhartha Gautama would be horrified if he could see all the wacky places people took his simple observations.

Trying to maintain a proper ratio of perspective is what I am about.

No, 'he' would not. A mirror just reflect things people want to see but it is not affected by thing it reflect.

Faking it is a waste of time. Any attempt to create a mindset of peace or harmony that is not born of true knowledge or true understanding is destined to fall by the wayside, because it is not rooted in anything of substantial value.

Consider this passage from p. 44 of "Flow In Sports: The Keys to Optimal Experiences and Performances." Posted on both threads for benefit of discussion.

==============
Move Beyond The Comfort Zone

A fear of failure holds some people back from embracing challenge and improving their skills. Challenge involves the risk of not succeeding. Complacency may be a symptom of the fear of failure; for some individuals, complacency occurs because of their preference for staying within the comfort zone of performance. While comfort and ease may be appropriate when sport is used as a form of relaxation, they do not make a good mind-set for athletes trying to achieve new skill levels or improve. It is not possible to go forward while seeking to maintain a comfortable feeling about performance.
