Another simple and powerful way to dissolve problems is not to dwell upon the outcome of your actions. Instead, learn to value each action (no matter how small or large), to do it with complete attention. Your joy and satisfaction comes from doing each action with a whole heart and mind. Results and consequences then take care of themselves. When you are not absorbed by concern for outcomes, how much anxiety can you ever have?

All the insight we will ever need to live well will come from fully being who and where we are.

In the Zen Way we focus upon each breath, each day, each moment and experience it totally. One complete breath brings the next.

When we do not reject our suffering, or add anything to it, pain is simply pain. It is what we add to our pain that turns it into suffering.

In a relationship if you are giving and getting nothing back in return, stop giving so much, and spend time being. Give to yourself, be who you are.

A time of uncertainty, of not knowing exactly where we're headed, or what kind of choice to make is a Zen moment.

All experiences are welcomed and fully digested, not judged good or bad.
