On a daily basis, you must take more care of your mind than just money, money, money!

Open your arms to change but don't let go of your values.

The cultivation of compassion is no longer a luxury, but a necessity, if our species is to survive.

For the moment a lot of attention is given to economic concerns, and these problems at hand easily eclipse all others. But the remedies proposed for these problems all come out of outmoded ways of thinking... The remedy? Compassion. The logical feeling that we find in ourselves if we search deeply enough that has to be exercised toward all other living creatures.

Self confidence plays an important part in every aspect of man's life.

True compassion is not just an emotional response, but a firm commitment founded on reason. Therefore, a truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change, even if they behave negatively. Through universal altruism, you develop a feeling of responsibility for others: the wish to help them actively overcome their problems.

Looking at various means of developing compassion, I think empathy is an important factor: the ability to appreciate others' suffering.
