The vast majority of our troubles and heartaches would simply vanish from view if only we could remember - before we act - that we are made victims mostly by our own tendencies.

What good is any feeling we may have about ourselves, if it only lasts as long as others agree to it?

The only world in which "defeat" exists as a reality is the one darkened by the false idea that what may have happened to us a moment ago is the same as what's possible for us to achieve now.

Much like the hands of a clock go nowhere fast, anxious thoughts run us round-and-round without taking us anywhere!

The right attitude toward any negative state begins with understanding that its only authority over you is a direct reflection of your attitude towards it.

Any conclusion you reach about yourself has to be an unseen limitation because there's always more to see.

If I am identified with my relationship, with my house, or with my money, I am doomed to suffer.
