Kindle Notes & Highlights
A true Warrior of the Light always chooses his own battlefield.
He accepts defeat as defeat and does not try to make a victory out of it.
“I fought for something and did not succeed. I lost the first battle.” These words give him renewed strength. He knows that no one wins all the time and he knows how to distinguish his successes from his failures.
When somebody wants something, the whole Universe conspires in their favor. The Warrior of the Light knows this. For this reason, he takes great care with his thoughts. Hidden beneath a whole series of good intentions lie feelings that no one dares confess to himself: vengeance, self-destruction, guilt, fear of winning, a macabre joy at other people’s tragedies.
The Universe does not judge; it conspires in favor of what we want. That is why the Warrior has the courage to look into the dark places of his soul in order to ensure that he is not asking for the wrong things. And he is always very careful about what he thinks.
He does not repeat this mistake, but he nevertheless keeps his word and pays the price for his own impulsiveness.
But the Warrior knows why he is celebrating. He is savoring the best gift that victory can bring: confidence. He celebrates yesterday’s victory in order to gain more strength for tomorrow’s battle.
