Attention is the ability we have to discriminate and to focus only on that which we want to perceive.

There is a huge amount of freedom that comes to you when you take nothing personally.

Before we were born, a whole society of storytellers was already here. The storytellers who were here before us taught us how to be human.

I had a massive heart attack, and in my belief that I was close to dying, I took the opportunity to teach my son about death. That lesson increased his faith in such a way that he completely accepted all the changes that life brings us. He learned that only the present exists. From that moment on, he began living in the present time, knowing that the future is just a possibility, and without believing all the opinions from the past. He understood that there are no guides, or masters. Each one of us is our own guru, and we can only save ourselves.

when the need is in the mind, you cannot satisfy the need

When you do your best you learn to accept yourself

Our minds have the need to know. When we dont know we make assumptions - they make us feel safer than not knowing. And we are pretty much always making assumptions.
