If You Shift Your Focus

There Is Often A Big Disparity Between The Way In Which We Perceive Things And The Way Things Really Are.

We Need Material Development, But We Need To Understand That By Itself It Doesn't Bring Peace Of Mind.

Spend Some Time Alone Every Day.

I Believe Compassion To Be One Of The Few Things We Can Practice That Will Bring Immediate And Long-term Happiness To Our Lives. I'm Not Talking About The Short-term Gratification Of Pleasures Like Sex, Drugs Or Gambling (though I'm Not Knocking Them), But Something That Will Bring True And Lasting Happiness. The Kind That Sticks.

We Must Generate Courage Equal To The Size Of The Difficulties We Face.
