Keep mindfulness, drop everything else,
if possible. Implementation may require
modulation.

This situation with belief is poignant
when it involves oneself dealing with
oneself, in closed circle. One invests
oneself in making oneself believe
something about oneself, and one's
entire existence hangs on the balance.
Once one can't convince oneself about
the issue any longer, one collapses and
implodes, all from one's own energy.
One forgets that wishing doesn't make
it so.
