You can never get enough of what you don't want.

The only thing an excuse gives you is an option out of the life you'd like to live.

The essence of greatness is the ability to choose personal fulfillment in circumstances where others choose madness.

Your reputation is in the hands of others. That's what the reputation is. You can't control that. The only thing you can control is your character.

Can you see the beauty in a cockroach?

Let the world unfold without always attempting to figure it all out. Let relationships just be, since everything is going to stretch out in Divine order. Don't try so hard to make something work - simply allow. Don't always toil at trying to understand your mate, your children, your parents, your boss, or anyone else because the Tao is working at all times.

Your soul - that inner quiet space - is yours to consult. It will always guide you in the right direction.
