Our freedom can be measured by the number of things we can walk away from.
You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need.
Happiness is not the acquisition of anything; it’s the understanding of something.
A person obsessed with the need to be happy will never be so. The obsession is the obstruction.
To change what you get you must change who you are.
Change is never a loss – it is change only.
A clear understanding of negative emotions dismisses them.
You know what is right. Deep down, you know. The battle between your true wisdom and the counterfeit wisdom of society is what causes frustration. Refuse to compromise with what you know is right-with what is right for you.
The reason why most people are frustrated is because a lie cannot be turned into a truth.
Have the daring to stop doing the things you really don’t want to do. Can you see them? Look closely. Can you observe the many things you do because you reluctantly feel you should or must? Watch closely. Examine every action and reaction. Do you act naturally or do you act because you feel compelled? If you feel compelled, stop. Compulsion is slavery. Example: Refuse to go along with the crowd.
Do not mistake desire for love. Desire leaves home in a frantic search for one gratification after another. Love is at home with itself.
All we have to do is to receive what we are given…We are given the naturalness to love someone, to be calm in crisis, to ignore self-defeating suggestions, to be pleasant, forgiving, tender, helpful, unworried, brave, energetic.
