Takeaways:
Words
- Don't speak negatively about yourself, even as a joke. Your body doesn't know the difference.
- “Words are energy and cast spells, that's why it's called spelling.” Change the way you speak about yourself and you can change your life.
Learning
- The only thing to know is that you do not know. You cannot fill your cup if it’s already full.
- Life is our teacher, there is something to learn in every single moment. Look for the lesson.
- If you have to think, you still do not understand. Feel.
Time
- Past = memories. Present = opportunities. Future = possibilities.
- To waste time: expend it without thought, carelessly. To spend time: pass it in a specific manner. Once time is gone it's gone.
- If you love life, don't waste time. Time is what life is made up of.
- The now is the truth. Truth has no future. Nothing exists besides the now.
- Anxiety is the gap between the now and the then. If you are living in the now, it’s impossible to be anxious.
Being
- We tend to have more faith in what we imitate than in what we originate.
- Thoughts are things. A man is what he thinks. "As he thinketh in his heart, so is he."
- Use your ego, instead of being used by it.
- The more we value things, the less we value ourselves.
- What we are not changing, we are choosing.
- Instead of dedicating your life to actualize a concept of what you should be like, actualize yourself.
