What good does suspicion do? Why let worried thoughts about the future trouble your mind? Focus on what needs to be done right now. If you can search and look into that, what else do you need? And if you can see clearly what to do by yourself, don't let anyone pull you away from it. But if you can't see it clearly alone, hold back and ask for advice from the wisest people. And if something else is blocking you, move forward carefully and thoughtfully. Work with what the moment gives you. Keep your eye on what seems most right and just. To hit that target and succeed at it — that's happiness. It's the only thing we can truly fail at.
What use is there of suspicion at all? or, why should thoughts of mistrust, and suspicion concerning that which is future, trouble thy mind at all? What now is to be done, if thou mayest search and inquiry into that, what needs thou care for more? And if thou art well able to perceive it alone, let no man divert thee from it. But if alone thou doest not so well perceive it, suspend thine action, and take advice from the best. And if there be anything else that doth hinder thee, go on with prudence and discretion, according to the present occasion and opportunity, still proposing that unto thyself, which thou doest conceive most right and just. For to hit that aright, and to speed in the prosecution of it, must needs be happiness, since it is that only which we can truly and properly be said to miss of, or miscarry in.
