If we approach life as an experiment, then we are willing to try things this way and that way, either way we have nothing to lose. The trick is not to get caught up in hope and fear, remember if it is time for something to flourish it will; if not, it won’t. Keep experimenting.
We have a tendency to put spiritual realization as our ultimate goal, but we forget to put it into context. Our total emphasis should be on living simply, enjoying what we do every day. That is all you need. Realization just means your focus should be on the act of living your life well.
Trying to dominate or control events goes against the current of life. Believe in yourself and you don’t have to try and convince others. If you are content with yourself, you don’t need others approval. If you accept yourself as you are, the whole world accepts you.
To make successful progress you must be in harmony with natural laws. In times of progress and successful development, it is necessary to work and make the best use of the times. These times of increase do not endure; therefore, they must be utilized while they last.
Quote: You get your life to “take off” by first becoming clear in your thinking about it.
