"Being" is relevant only to the extent that it makes you do.

If there is no other method, then advising people to ignore changing what they are in favor of what they do is bad advice.

Said Achmiz14y00

I am having trouble parsing your comment. Could you elaborate? "no other method" of what?

Also, who is advising people to ignore changing what they are...? And why is advising people to change what they do bad advice?

Please do clarify, as at this point I am not sure whether, and on what, we are disagreeing.
