The possession of anything begins in the mind

If you want to learn to swim jump into the water. On dry land no frame of mind is ever going to help you

"It's not what you give, it's the way you give it."

Bring the mind into sharp focus and make it alert so that it can immediately intuit truth, which is everywhere. The mind must be emancipated from old habits, prejudices, restrictive thought processes and even ordinary thought itself.

It is not a daily increase, but a daily decrease. Hack away at the inessentials.

I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.
