(a sampling of quotes from the book)
Drop your goals, they become limitations. Allow your goals to find you.
Everything is cumulative.
Follow your intuition. Don't let it follow you.
You can't buy a deep quiet satisfaction; but you can own one.
When in a bind, take the best of the worst.
Grace is finding the good in what we think is bad. Find the meaning in that 'stroke of bad luck'.
Today is going to be yesterday. Keep your karmic slate clean for a peaceful tomorrow.
Your worst day today, could be your best day tomorrow. Give yourself a loving day.
The best day of your life is today. Show up. You're there anyway.
Humility is a healing art.
Make eye contact. It's the only way to listen.
Expect 'blips' on the screen. This is your life. For better or for worse.
You can't reverse course; you can only change direction.
Change doesn't have to be stressful. It needs to be perceptible.
Don't get caught up in the details; you might miss the obvious.
You can convince yourself of anything. Convince wisely.
A dilemma is no more than a choice that hasn't been made yet.
A plan is a rough draft. Everything is tentative, until afterwards.
Don't be a consumer of life, be a producer.
Be careful of the seeds you plant. They may grow into unwanted beanstalks.
Deeds before dollars. Need before greed.
Walls are meant for buildings, not people.
When in doubt, give the benefit of the doubt. It is a gift you give to yourself and the other person. You will both benefit.
Blame has but one owner, absolution many.
Always accept an apology. An apology offered must be received. Once it is out there, like a ball tossed in the air, it has to land. It either lands on acceptance or rebuff. Which would you choose?
You are nothing if not your word.
Wear a smile , it fits any face.
Don't squander your god given talents. Talent without drive is a pipe dream.
Failure isn't fatal, but failure to change can be.
Self-love is not vanity. Self-interest is.
The hole you dig under someone else, may be the hole you fall into one day.
Live each day in Namaste.
Take nothing for granted. Everything is on loan.
It doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to realize the case of Self-Realization is an inside job.
Your perfect getaway can be right here, right now.
You cannot predict what could have happened if it never happened. There is no almost. If something almost happened, then it didn't happen.
If you burn your bridges, you'll have blisters forever.
At any time you can be someone's inspiration. Inspire intelligently.
It's all in the delivery.
