"La restricción silencia el carácter naturalmente cacofónico de nuestros sentimientos e intenciones"

Simplified meaning
Our feelings and intentions can sometimes be overwhelming and chaotic, like a room full of people all talking loudly at the same time. When we have constraints or limitations, it’s like organizing the noise and bringing order to it. For instance, if you have a job with specific rules and a clear schedule, it helps keep your work more manageable because you know exactly what to do and when. Without that structure, you might feel stressed and distracted because you don't know where to start. Applying this idea to your life, think about setting boundaries for your time and energy. By doing so, you can focus better, feel less overwhelmed, and achieve your goals without getting lost in a mess of emotions and thoughts.
