Pursuit creates the satisfaction. 

Not the achievement, not the attainment, but the worthy endeavor.

Joy and happiness are found from pursuing what is right, not getting what you feel you deserve. 

What we ask for is always important. 

How we answer the call of what others ask for is more important. 

The more we avoid discomfort, suffering, and pain the more sensitive we become to everything that happens around us. 

We get tricked into believing that what is happening around us is actually happening to us. 

If we have pain inside of us, it is natural to avoid more pain. 

If we let go of the pain inside of us, then there is nothing to avoid and we do not get bothered or affected by what happens outside of us. 

Specific problems require specific solutions. When you ask “What is to be done?” and you get vague response, either you are not trusted or you will also get vague results. Both are negative scenarios, to negative to allow. If you help people develop detailed plans, then the results will be more predictable. 

Once you decide you want to be free,

that is when suffering,

ends. 

We always can perform only to the highest level of our training. 

We are trained to believe or not believe.

We are trained to have fear or faith. 

We are trained to love or hate. 

We are trained to work or wait. 

The better we train and train others, the better our entire world becomes. 

More Education is not a prevention. It is the cure. 

Gaining Knowledge is not a diversion. It is the path. 

Applied Philosophy is not a hobby. It is living.  

Show you care. 

If you care enough, your work will show it. 

Your work is everything you do. 

Keep working. 

The cost of inaction is almost always higher than the cost of action. 

 

Thinking about the present is what helps drive awareness. Awareness encourages better behavior.

Leading others is about behavior. Our own behavior. As we think about the impact we are having on the person we are speaking to at the moment, our words are more likely to be ones we don’t regret. Thinking about others creates awareness that leads to good leadership.
