Eckhart TolleDon't let a mad world tell you that success is anything other than a successful present moment.
Eckhart TolleWhenever you are engaged in something and there is an outpouring of energy, you are in enthusiasm.
Eckhart TolleWork to recognize the primary importance of the present moment. A good little pointer toward that is to ask yourself, "What is my relationship with the present moment? How am I relating to it?"
Eckhart TolleEgo is an immature stage of development for humans, and that's what it will be recognized as when the consciousness changes on the planet. Children will develop an ego and quickly outgrow it. That's very different from developing an ego and being stuck with it for the rest of your life.
Eckhart Tolle
