Question

Doubt is very sneaky. It can be in my mind undetected for a long time! What tips do you have for spotting signs it may be present?

Answer

We talked about doubt the other day. I said, that we really need help when we are stuck in doubt, good friends. As for signs, how can we spot signs that we are stuck in doubt?

Doubt is a wavering. It means we are not sure, do we go right, do we go left? Do we go up? Do we go down? Is it black? Is it white? We are just not sure. We are stuck. We can't get to the right answer, we can't even always ask the right questions. We simply can not get to the right answer and we know we can't get it. We can't figure it out. We can't figure out which is the better way to go. Any time you are stuck in that position, you are stuck in doubt. Is it, is it not? Will it, will it not? It has these two opposite questions going on. It always has different choices, which seem to be pretty equal. That's when we are stuck in doubt. We just don't know which one to go with.

So whenever you are stuck and you know you are stuck, there's more than one direction or more than one way that you may choose and you are just not sure which one to go with, that's doubt.
