If you want peace, stop fighting. If you want peace of mind, stop fighting with your thoughts.

Worrying is the interest paid on a debt you may not owe

To change rules that are already in place takes time, energy, perseverance and a lot of hard work.  You only have so many of these assets at your disposal, so choose with care the rules you want to change.

To overcome a fear, here's all you have to do: realize the fear is there, and do the action you fear anyway.

Fear is something to be moved through, not something to be turned from.

I see nothing wrong with the human trait to desire. In fact, I consider it integral to our success mechanism. Becoming attached to what we desire is what causes the trouble. If you must have it in order to be happy, then you are denying the happiness of the here and now.

One of the great joys of life is creativity. Information goes in, gets shuffled about, and comes out in new and interesting ways.
