Joy is not the result of getting what you want; it is the way to get what you want. In the deepest sense, joy is what you want.

If you are losing your peace in your quest for peace, you are not on the road to peace. The road to peace is peace.

As soon as you become aware that something is not working, immediately shift your focus to the desired result.

Work may be your dominant thought, and joy an afterthought. But joy is your true purpose, and work the afterthought.

Spirit is a more accurate measure of success than the ruler.

If you are not living with a whole heart now, the end of the world poses no threat; your life is already gone. Life is only as valuable as our presence to enjoy it. To miss the beauty of the moment because you are preparing to protect yourself from the next one, is to trade a precious gem for a cheap trinket.

Build your world around your dreams rather than trying to fit your dreams into the world you know.
