Nguyen provides a link to his “Nuggets of Wisdom” newsletter, which every day offers “one simple, perspective-shifting idea to expand your mind and help you find more peace, joy, and abundance” (124).

Nguyen will provide practical guidelines for applying the principles of the book to daily life, urging his readers to be patient with themselves. He writes: “The fact that you are here means you are already well on your path to peace, and it is inevitable if you stay the course” (126). He begins with “Inner Work,” or ways to train the mind to deal with overthinking. He restates the PAUSE sequence—pause to take a breath, ask if you want to keep suffering, understand that there is a choice, say “thinking is the root cause of suffering” as often as necessary, and experience reality directly (130). 

Nguyen returns to likely objections and obstacles, including the idea that thinking is key to productivity, the belief that nothing can change, and fear of the unknown. Nguyen insists that fear “is an illusion designed to keep us in our comfort zones and nothing more. It is only when we see what is actually happening in our minds that we can let go of it and be free” (133).
