It's not your job to like me - it's mine

Sometimes the concept you're questioning makes more sense to ask just the second one and not the first one.

When you question what you believe, you leave the world, really, and what the world believes. It puts you in a very interesting position.

Everyone is a mirror image of yourself-your own thinking coming back to you.

What I invite people to do is to look at their lives just the way that they have lived them. Not to change anything, and not to do positive thinking at all.

The Work is merely four questions; it's not even a thing. It has no motive, no strings. It's nothing without your answers. These four questions will join any program you've got and enhance it. Any religion you have - they'll enhance it. If you have no religion, they will bring you joy. And they'll burn up anything that isn't true for you. They'll burn through to the reality that has always been waiting.

When you’re focused outside and believe that your problem is caused by someone else, rather than by your attachment to the story you’re believing in the moment, then you are your own victim, and the situation appears to be hopeless.
