Don't let a mad world tell you that success is anything other than a successful present moment.
Eckhart TolleFuture success is dependent upon and inseparable from the consciousness out of which the actions emanate
Eckhart TolleWhen one child says to another, "I can do this, I bet you can't"; "My dad has a bigger car than yours"; or, "My dad is stronger than yours." Children identify with this or that, trying to build up a sense of self - a mentally defined sense of self.
Eckhart TolleLove, joy, and peace cannot flourish until you have freed yourself from mind dominance.
Eckhart TolleMany people see themselves as a problem that needs to be solved. They also habitually see the present moment as an obstacle that they need to overcome or get away from. With awareness, an inner sense of spaciousness arises that enables you to look at your own mind, which is to say the human mind, with a certain degree of detachment.
Eckhart Tolle
