Self-awareness is value-free. It isn't scary. It doesn't imply that you will subject yourself to needless pain.
Deepak ChopraThe world is a mirror for us – whatever you say about others is really how you feel about yourself.
Deepak ChopraIn an instant, our mind can carry us far away into memories of the past or fantasies about the future. Or we may get caught up in a race against the clock, feeling like there's never enough time. We say things like "Time is flying," "Time is running out," or "There are never enough hours in the day."
Deepak ChopraFear, anger, stubbornness, and distrust portray themselves as your rescuers. Actually these energies only make you more closed off. Tell yourself: Nobody ever solved a situation by panicking; no one ever solved a situation by refusing to hear new answers; no one solved a situation by shutting down.
