It is to the benefit of your inner peace not to harm others.

Three sources of hurt: attachment, expectation, judgement. Three sources of healing: compassion, commitment, observation.

when you create something, do not watch its progress with attachment and anxiety. Create it and let it go. Give it to the world and let it be. Feeling stressed over the outcome and radiating vibrations of agitation does not help you or your work.

a strong self-love helps you find a balance between giving selflessly and protecting yourself from harm.

happiness is being able to enjoy the things you worked for without slipping into thinking about what is missing or what you want next.

how people perceive you is more reflective of their inner mechanics than your actions. you cannot control
how others think and live, but you can be intentional
about the energy you put into the world. some may misunderstand you, but what matters most is that you understand you

progress is acknowledging where you are and where you want to be without allowing the space between the two to cause you mental tension. if anything, it should inspire you to continue moving forward peacefully and diligently. having goals without attachments produces faster results.

If I am always wanting, I have little time for being. Only in being can I feel real peace.

one of the hardest skills to master is saying no to yourself so that you can rise up and unfold into a greater you: no to distractions or lack of consistency, no to the patterns and ways of being that only lead back into the past, no to only doing what is easy, no to doubt and fear.

emotional maturity is knowing the difference between your true needs and temporary cravings. your needs help you live at an optimal level and support your happiness. cravings are a reflection of your agitation and attachments; they leave you dissatisfied and wanting more.
