When you are in the present moment, you break the continuity of your story, of past and future. Then true intelligence arises, and also love.
Eckhart TolleInstead of making up stories, stay with the facts. For example, "I am ruined" is a story. It limits you and prevents you from taking effective action. "I have 50 cents left in my bank account" is a fact.
Eckhart TolleFulfill me, make me happy, make me feel safe, tell me who I am. The world cannot give you those things, and when you no longer have such expectations, all self created suffering comes to an end.
Eckhart Tolle
