Devote Yourself to Your Work

The question should not be about whether it is right or wrong. Right now, the most important thing is to find what is the most important thing. You are asking yourself for others, which is not important. The most important thing is to be involved in what you are doing now, without thinking “good” or “bad.” Stop asking—stop thinking, and devote yourself to your work. Whatever people say, or whatever you yourself say, you should not be concerned about it. —Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 67-12-07 - as found on shunryusuzuki.com edited by PF.
