All of us are like eagles who have forgotten we know how to fly and are trapped in our nest of old food, excrement, and stale air. We need to let go of everything, step to the edge of our nest and soar. You cannot soar and carry all the baggage with you. Let go!
Just as the sun is at the center of our solar system, so to must our mind of wisdom be at the center of our diverse personalities. If our minds are strong and balanced, the various parts of our lives will be held firmly in their proper courses and there will be less deviation.
Begin a large task in its formative state because larger problems grow from small ones. You can accomplish great tasks with a series of small acts. Be aware of those who promise quick and easy solutions, accept problems as challenges, do not dwell on them, take action.
Growth does not need to mean that things get larger. When we learn to unlearn what no longer serves us, things may even get smaller and better. Do more with less and yet hold more of the world in your grasp. Our job is to give gains value, and not merely learn they are there.
