Shhh... Secrets to a Happy Life


-Whatever you feel the world is withholding from you- give that

-Greatness is an illusion. Life is made up of moments and each moment is very small.

-Make peace with each moment. Make peace with difficult moments in order to get out of the difficulty. What you resist, persists.

-Become friendly with your life exactly as it is. Right... now.

-There is sacredness in our difficulties if we allow for it.

-Stop looking for grand spiritual practice- your life is your spiritual practice.

-Remember, you are life. You are not separate from life. Begin to see the interconnectedness of all things.
-No matter how active we are, our state of consciousness creates our world. No amount of action can compensate for this. What you do is always secondary, who you are is primary.
-Its not what you do, but how you do it, that counts.
- In our modern world we know much about doing and almost little about being. What we don't realize is that it is the "being" that gives our "doing" meaning.
-People become very unhappy when they are focused on the surface of their lives. Even intelligence, without connection or depth, becomes destructive.

-Finally, how spiritual you are, how happy you are, has nothing to do with what you believe and everything to do with your state of consciousness. Be present now. Be at peace. Who you are will radiate and (the best part) you don't have to worry about it!

-Now go out and have a great week.

  2. Have you been reading The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle? I read it a few months ago and it really transformed my life. I am trying to be much more present and conscious in my life and I am finding that it has enriched my relationships beyond what I thought was possible. Love you:)
