Inner Peace
It means no running from one thought to
another, constantly ruminating about some
past incident, no constant dwelling on hurts
and what people said or did.
Shelley Duval and Robert Wicklund

or on the external environment.
“When we focus on our attention on our self.
We evaluate and compare our current behavior
to our internal standards and values. We
become self-conscious as objective evaluators of
our selves.”
