    “Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”

    Helen Schuman, A Course in Miracles

      “Shame is past-obsessed. One way of overcoming shame is to become future-obsessed. Stop focusing on what’s broken. Instead, focus on what can be built. For one week, focus on what you can add to your life: a new hobby, a new friend, a new skill. Then go make an effort to add it.”

      Mark Manson, The Breakthrough

        “Peak experiences are fun, but you always have to come back. Learning to appreciate ordinary moments is the key to a fulfilling life.”

          “Real confidence looks like humility. You no longer need to advertise your value because it comes from a place that does not require the validation of others.”

            “The belief that there is some future moment more worth our presence than the one we’re in right now is why we miss our lives.”

              “The more comfortable you become in your own skin, the less you need to manufacture the world around you for comfort.”

                “You don’t find your ground by looking for stability. You find your ground by relaxing into instability.”

                  “Desires that arise in agitation are more aligned with your ego. Desires that arise in stillness are more aligned with your soul.”

                    “Our obsession with being informed makes it hard to think long-term. We spend hours consuming news because we want to be informed. The problem is, the news doesn’t make us informed – quite the opposite. The more news we consume, the more misinformed we become.”

                      “An event or a journey? They’re easy to confuse. An event happens at date certain, then it’s over, nothing more to be done. A journey might include an event, but it’s bigger than that, and ongoing. A wedding is an event, a marriage is a journey. The week a book is published is an event, while the creation, publication and lifespan of the ideas in the book are a journey. The focus and energy we lavish on events can easily distract us from the journeys we care about.”

                        “The problem that many of us face is that we have great dreams and ambitions. Caught up in the emotions of our dreams and the vastness of our desires, we find it very difficult to focus on the small, tedious steps usually necessary to attain them. We tend to think in terms of giant leaps toward our goals. But in the social world as in nature, anything of size and stability grows slowly.”
