What should you protect: Your inherent qualities or qualities that are not inherent to you? Is there a choice between knowledge and action? Is there a choice between knowledge and anxiety? Should you study logic? Why? Choose to be faithful. Choose habits that fight impressions. Show yourself to be worthy. Choose to be skillful.
