I have spoken to many people who have begun to live in presence, and they find many changes come into their lives. Sometimes these changes happen as inner realizations - "This is what I have to do" - or they arise from the external when something suddenly happens.

Be at least as interested in what goes on inside you as what happens outside. If you get the inside right, the outside will fall into place.

I believe from what I can see there is a good chance the shift will happen in humanity before it is too late.

Work to recognize the primary importance of the present moment.

Above all, the only thing you have to heal is the present thought. Get that right and the whole picture will change into one of harmony and joy.

For some people, it's the beginning of an awakening when they hear or read, "You have a voice in your head that never stops talking. Have you noticed that?" And suddenly they become aware that the thoughts go through their heads, whereas before they were so identified with them that they were those thoughts.

Every challenge is a disguised opportunity for salvation.
