Acharya Prashant explains that breaking patterns or habits is not something one does through willpower or ego, as that only creates a new pattern of pride. Instead, patterns should be allowed to dissolve by not supporting the internal arguments and fears that arise when one knows the right path. He emphasizes that true action is often 'non-action'—the refusal to give strength to the mind's justifications for remaining in suffering. Knowing what is right is natural to our being, but we often lack the faith to act on it because of fear.
