We cannot become what we want by remaining what we are.

– Max Depree

If we want something different to what we have now, then we have to be prepared to make changes.

You are the sky. Everything else is just the weather.

– Pema Chodron

Identify with the sky, not the weather. That is, don’t identify with what is always subject to change, but recognise yourself as that which never changes.

Sometimes the bad things that happen in our lives put us directly on the path to the best things that will ever happen to us.

– Nicole Reed

This is not to discount that bad things do happen, but to accept that what may seem unbearable could turn out to be the best thing to ever happen. Always keep a look out for opportunities that may pass by if you are too busy looking at the past.

Mindfulness is a pause – the space between stimulus and response: that’s where choice lies.

– Tara Brach

This was one of my earliest mindfulness lessons. The recognition that I did not need to react from ego, but could just pause, see what reactions I was having and then try to respond mindfully. It was life changing for me. Try it and see how it works for you.

Just as a snake sheds its skin, we must shed our past over and over again.

– Jack Kornfield

The past is a heavy weight we often carry around with us. Try lessening your load, stone by stone if you have to, and take the load off your shoulders.

Live life as if everything is rigged in your favor.

– Rumi

What is the best thing that could happen in any situation? How often do you ask yourself that? So often we go to the worst case scenario, and so often that never happens. If you find yourself feeling that everything is doom and gloom, just ask yourself what is the best that could happen, and live that possibility.

Because you are alive, everything is possible.

– Thich Nhat Hanh

You’re alive, life is a blessing. Make what you want to happen a real possibility.
