How you feel about yourself or those around you is based on your level of acceptance — there are no two ways about this.

It is necessary to always keep this in mind. It also states that you tend to take responsibility for some personal need or desire determined by your present consciousness. More often than not, your primary motivation is to feel right with yourself, physically, spiritually, emotionally, and mentally.

Suppose your needs in any one of these areas are unfulfilled to you. In that case, they will in some sense create some level of frustration and nervousness. Hence, you will need to do whatever is deemed necessary to make yourself comfortable, including if the action you will take may appear to be harmful to you.
