If you fight with yourself, what do you really hope to get accomplished.?
People in the world find it hard to listen to their higher self, but it all honesty its usually the best advice you will ever receive. Deep down we all know good from bad and right from wrong. But it takes time to trust yourself. To know that whatever you are doing has a purpose, or else your spirit would not have landed you in that position. When you are trying to achieve something, of course, there will be roadblocks impasses and the like. But that doesn't give yourself an excuse not to listen to yourself.
All of the people who try to tell you that you should sell out, take the easy road, don't go for a spiritual goal, don't live your dreams, don't make an attempt. Those are generally people who have tried to do so themselves but have failed. As such they want to throw you into fear of failure mode like they are stuck in. Some people succeed automatically in life, but that sure isn't everyone. Others have to try and try and try... Only through their stalwart attempts to do the right thing for their soul no matter what do they succeed. But it's better to die attempting to live a meaningful life than kill your soul before your actual death in an attempt to not feel the pain that purpose and failure can bring.
The strongest people are usually those who are able to endure these upsets and keep going despite sometimes impossible odds. Look at Mr Rogers for example. This is a plane Jane guy, with no real discernable charisma so to speak. If you met him in real life you would just be like, this is a very normal average person... But he had a dream, and he went about doing it. He was an underdog whether he knew it or not. Just because something seems unlikely doesn't mean that it won't happen. it just means that it may take longer or be harder than you first thought. Don't take your spiritual duties lightly. They are all that you have at the end of the day. All you can take out of this life are your good deeds and merits. The rest is dead on arrival...

You are very wise in your approach.
People have a limited perspective and that's done on purpose whenever they're not powerful enough to think for themselves.
I'm glad to see though that other like-minded people are waking up, being vulnerable and expressing their desires for real change.
