Do not allow negative thoughts to enter your mind for they are the weeds that strange confidence.

Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.

The world is full of people who are determined to be somebody or to give trouble. They want to get ahead, to stand out. Such ambition has no use for a gung fu man, who rejects all forms of self-assertiveness and competition

Defeat is not defeat unless accepted as a reality-in your own mind.

Effort within the mind further limits the mind, because effort implies struggle towards a goal and when you have a goal, a purpose, an end in view, you have placed a limit on the mind.

You will never learn anything new unless you are ready to accept yourself with your limitations. You must accept the fact that you are capable in some directions and limited in others, and you must develop your capabilities.

To be what I term a 'quality' human being one has to be transparently real and have the courage to be what he is.
